If you have a question about this talk, please contact Maurice Chiodo. All mathematicians will, eventually, form some part of the workforce. The abstract nature of mathematics may lead us to believe that our role is “special”, and that we won’t need to worry about the usual workplace interactions, issues, conflicts and dangers that may arise in other professions. This is simply not true. We face the same issues, and need to know how to deal with them. Our focused and dedicated nature means that we may easily overlook instances of others trying to exploit or manipulate us at work, resulting in harm to ourselves, and our work becoming harmful to wider society. We need to know how to identify such people and situations, and to protect ourselves against them. This talk is part of the C.U. Ethics in Mathematics Society (CUEiMS) series.
