Inclusion and the Value of Difference | Dr. Vivienne Ming | Energy Disruptors | EDU2022

In a world where the rate of innovation stagnates due to the reinforcement of the same ideas, theoretical neuroscientist and artificial intelligence expert Dr. Vivienne Ming explores the critical link between disruptive thinking and the allure of safe answers. Highlighting the phenomenon where connectivity can hinder the search for groundbreaking solutions, Dr. Ming unravels the tightly woven tapestry of innovation, inclusion, and the power of diversity, delving into challenging topics like the profound impact of constant feedback on mental health and the prevalent fear among big companies to embrace unconventional ideas.
Drawing a compelling correlation, Dr. Ming emphasizes how complimentary diversity, rather than mere representation, is the driving force behind the success of the best teams. The degree of diversity and economic inclusion, she argues, not only predicts high growth but also enhances the quality of work and impact. So, why is it so difficult for us to embrace and listen to differences? Dr. Ming unravels how our brains react differently to those who are similar versus dissimilar, and the consequential impact on trust.
In this illuminating talk, Dr. Vivienne Ming shows how to begin the journey of dismantling biases, fostering inclusivity, and championing the untapped potential that lies within each unique perspective.
