1. Many decision-making and attributional biases affect interpersonal and team interactions.

Select the two that you think are having the greatest negative effects on interpersonal and
team functioning in the Aston-Blair case. In your response, be sure to:
a. Define the two biases
b. Give concrete reasons as to why you think that they are affecting the team
c. Give specific examples of how they are negatively affecting the team.
d. Recommend and justify two (no more!) action steps that the people in the case can take
to mitigate the effects of these biases on their ongoing relationships (i.e., do not tell me
what they could have done in the past).
In response to your questions about the midterm, I have a couple of clarifications to
make...

On the first question, I am only looking for two action steps total (i.e., not two per bias).
I do not expect you to be writing a research paper but I do want you to cite sources when justifying your
analyses and, in many cases, your action steps
You do not need to go beyond the course readings, class discussions, videos shown in class, class
Powerpoints, or ManageMentor modules when citing sources
o Treat the ManageMentor modules as Blogs for citation purposes
o Treat class discussions as personal communications for citations purposes
o Treat class Powerpoints as Online Lecture Notes or Presentation Slides for citation purposes
