Biais de Représentativité: Decide beyond stereotypes and upgrade your managerial judgment. This concise, practical course empowers leaders and analysts to recognize when quick pattern-matching overrides evidence. You will learn how abstract preconceptions and stereotypes infiltrate hiring, project evaluation, and risk assessment—often leading to costly errors. Through crisp explanations, relatable examples, and interactive checks, you’ll uncover how the brain replaces complex analysis with simple categorization and why vague similarity can be dangerously persuasive. Then, you’ll practice countermeasures: focusing on case-specific facts, stress-testing assumptions, and using objective criteria to make clearer, fairer, and more accurate decisions. Designed for busy professionals, the program moves from foundations to hands-on strategies. You’ll explore the mechanism of categorization, learn to spot red flags that signal stereotype-driven judgments, and build repeatable routines to slow down snap inferences. By the end, you’ll be able to diagnose representativeness bias in real time, communicate the risks to your team, and implement lightweight decision protocols that elevate outcomes across talent, projects, and portfolios.

            <p>The human brain is naturally wired to process information efficiently, often relying on mental shortcuts to navigate complex environments. Among these shortcuts, the representativeness bias stands out as a significant cognitive hurdle, leading individuals to judge the probability of an event or the nature of a person based on how closely they resemble a pre-existing prototype or stereotype. In a professional context, this tendency causes decision-makers to substitute rigorous, data-driven analysis with simple categorization. By fitting unique situations into familiar patterns, managers often overlook critical nuances, prioritizing abstract generalities over the concrete facts of the case at hand.</p>

<p>Understanding the mechanics of this bias is essential for anyone tasked with high-stakes decision-making, from recruitment and project assessment to risk evaluation. This course explores the foundations of representativeness, examining how vague similarities can mask important differences and lead to costly errors. Participants will learn to recognize the subtle signs of stereotypical thinking and implement practical strategies to mitigate its influence. By shifting from intuitive categorization to the use of objective criteria, leaders can ensure that every managerial situation is treated with the individual attention it deserves, ultimately fostering more accurate and equitable outcomes.</p>
