Bias is present in all areas of business and personal life. One area where bias can greatly affect MBE's is in procurement. Join us for a presentation and lively discussion on recognizing, reducing and how to address bias in procurement. We will talk about the most commonly encountered procurement biases, explore why and how bias creeps into the procurement process and how it affects decision making. We will also explore how MBE's can address bias and what can corporations do to reduce bias in procurement operations.
