Dr. Pat Salgado
Sponsored by Fielding’s Inclusion Council and Office of the President, and led by alumna Pat Selgado and student Julie Baskin-Brooks, the event will introduce both relevant scholarship and implications for organizational practice.
Following recent clinical studies of memory formation and retention, Dr. Salgado builds an argument that bias is a biological function, a singular competency and manifested in all humans — a survival and evolutionary tool. The argument requires searching through new cognitive evidence made possible by technological advances and new research in memory building and memory retention.
Baskin-Brooks, a doctoral student in Organizational Development & Change, will address perceptions and reality. While at Sysco, she launched the company’s Diversity & Inclusion Council and developed its first Diversity Roadmap, Diversity Training Curriculum and Measurement Systems.
Fielding President Katrina Rogers and faculty member and Diversity & Inclusion Council chair Dr. Placida Gallegos will also take part in the discussion.
