Halo Effect

The video explains the Halo effect, a cognitive bias where an overall impression of a person influences the perception of their specific traits. A positive impression leads to viewing all traits positively, while a negative impression results in the opposite, known as the forktail or horn effect. The term 'Halo effect' originates from the idea of an Angel's halo, symbolizing inherent goodness. This bias affects our ability to evaluate information objectively, impacting organizational behavior and management.
