Maninder Kahlon

Maninder Kahlon, also known as Mini, manages programs in education and the workplace at the Level Playing Field Institute (LPFI). Through the "Cultures of Bias in the Workplace" program, LPFI explores and raises awareness around how workplace prejudice operates. Key initiatives include a national-level poll on perceptions of workplace fairness (HOW-FAIR) and the launch of stereotyping.org, which will use creative and thought-provoking narratives and facts to expose the irrational underbelly of stereotyping. Mini received her doctorate in Neuroscience from UCSF, and among other honors was a finalist for the Donald B. Lindsley prize awarded by the Society for Neuroscience. Her on-the-ground activism includes leading and working with the all-volunteer Alliance of South Asians Taking Action (ASATA) in their Bay Area work around civil rights for immigrant communities.
