What kind of person do you mean to be?
BEHAVIORAL SCIENTIST,
AUTHOR & SPEAKER
Dolly Chugh is a behavioral scientist, NYU professor, and acclaimed author whose work helps people and organizations close the gap between who they are and who they mean to be.
Her work turns research into clear, human stories about bias, history, and everyday power, so growth feels honest and doable instead of shaming. For readers, leaders, and teams, Dolly offers practical ways to bring values into daily action, one small step at a time.
BOOKS
Finally: an engaging, evidence-based book about how to battle biases, champion diversity and inclusion, and advocate for those who lack power and privilege. Dolly Chugh makes a convincing case that being an ally isn’t about being a good person—it’s about constantly striving to be a better person.
