Just boarded an early morning flight wearing my

gear. A seat mate looked at me and asked, “Basketball?” I said, “No. Engineering!” What about me prompted him to think I was playing or coaching basketball? 🤔

We had a great conversation during the flight. The strategy to expose our biases (which we all have) and foster dialogue is to have meaningful engagement.
