b'Group Attribution Error Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Group attribution error is defined by Wikipedia as the biased belief that the characteristics of an individual group member are reflective of the group as a whole. Startups often project the characteristics of one investor on the entire group when the group is much more diverse. Angel groups for example are composed of people with a variety of experiences, expertise, and perspectives.\\xa0 One investor doesn\\u2019t define the entire group. To overcome group attribution error, consider the following: Maintain awareness of the group attribution error when working with investor groups. Apply emotional intelligence by practicing self-awareness, empathy, and self-regulation. Remember a time in which you were part of a group and were influenced by the situation. Explain to yourself the rationale behind your judgment.\\xa0\\xa0 This will help clarify your reasoning and highlight biases in your judgment. Consider how the investor may view your deal from their perspective instead of your perspective. \\xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
