#9 – Taya Cohen, Ph.D. – A New Multidimensional Framework of Honesty

Experimental Honesty with Brian Curtis, Ph.D.

Taya’s Carnegie Mellon University Tepper School of Business Faculty Profile

33:58

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Reid Professor of Philosophy at Wake Forest University, Director of The Honesty Project, and among his 5 books and over 100 academic papers, author of the excellent book, Honesty: The Philosophy and Psychology of a Neglected Virtue that was published in 2021. Brian and Christian discuss a wide range of topics, including how Christian became interested in moral character and virtues like honesty, whether we are the type of person who has the virtue of honesty by examining our patterns of behavior and our motivations for acting honestly, different strategies we can experiment with in our daily lives to close any character gaps that might exist between the honest people we want to be and our less-than-honest behaviors. These strategies include adding moral reminders of our values, drawing inspiration from role models of honesty, being aware of the temptation for dishonesty to preserve our reputation of being an honest person, and the benefits of truthfulness, openness, and forgiveness to find relief from guilt and other forms of psychological suffering. We discuss how Christian’s life has changed since his career has focused more on honesty, ongoing efforts of The Honesty Project, where the future of honesty research might be heading, and more.
