Article Abstract:

In business, confirmation bias occurs when managers know what they want to do but ask employees for an opinion. Questions are manipulated by managers so that the desired answer is evident and the employee just utters it. Confirmation bias can de-motivate employees and it can lead to the loss of potential ideas of employees.
