Answer: A manager being a key person in an organization, should strive fair judgements as far as possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Managers are no exception to a rule of bias-free decisions. But there are some common biases that managers do encounter.

some of the common manager's bias include:-

Stereotypes, which is a general opinion upon individuals who share a particular trait.

selective perception, If a manager has a negative opinion of an individual, he is more likely to pay more attention to negative behaviors or actions from that individual and ignore the positive actions of that individual.

confirmation bias, first impression bias, which involves giving too much preference to their first impression of an employee and ignoring the other actions

recency bias is of the exactly opposite of the first impression bias.

Spillover Bias, can change a manager’s perspective by paying too much attention to past information rather than on the present one.

Negativity Bias, The negativity bias is an common characteristic of human nature.

Ingroup Bias, The ingroup bias is basically a way in which managers might tend to show favoritism in judgment.
