Welcome to the fifty-fifth episode of the Minutes Mastery series by Triumph through Training Pvt. Ltd. (3T)! In this episode, Rajavee Arora explores the Halo Effect, a cognitive bias that can significantly influence how we perceive others, especially in the workplace and personal interactions.
The Halo Effect was first coined by psychologist Edward Thorndike in 1920, after observing how people tend to judge someone’s overall character based on a single positive trait—such as physical attractiveness or charisma. For example, in job interviews, a likable candidate might be perceived as more competent, even if their skills don’t quite match the requirements. This bias can result in overlooking critical details and making poor decisions.
She explains how the Halo Effect impacts hiring, promotions, and relationships, with research showing that 62% of managers admit to being influenced by first impressions when making important decisions. To combat this, Rajavee encourages focusing on facts and concrete evidence rather than being swayed by initial impressions.
We acknowledge Edward Thorndike for his contribution to this insightful concept.
