@aliabdaal: The Halo Effect: How First Impressions Shape Everything Ever noticed how we assume good-looking people are also smart or kind? That’s the halo effect in action. One positive trait makes us believe someone has others, even without evidence. This happens everywhere. A charismatic leader is often seen as competent. A student great at maths is assumed to be great at everything. The reverse is also true. Someone with messy clothes might unfairly be judged as lazy or disorganised. Being aware of this bias helps us make better judgments and use it to our advantage. Have you ever caught yourself doing this? Feel free to share this with someone who needs to hear about this effect :)
