Affinity bias: The tendency to warm up to people like
ourselves.
Halo effect: The tendency to think everything about a person
is good because you like that person.
Perception bias: The tendency to form stereotypes and
assumptions about certain groups that make it impossible to
make an objective judgment about members of those groups.
Confirmation bias: The tendency for people to seek
information that confirms pre-existing beliefs or assumptions.
Group think: This bias occurs when people try too hard to fit
into a particular group by mimicking others or holding back
thoughts and opinions. This causes them to lose part of their
identities and may result in loss of creativity and innovation
