Panel – you, your questions, and our topic
Five years in to doing this event we’ve all witnessed the adolescent phase of applied behavioural science – the teenage years can be a bit reckless (especially if you're cool, like BE), sometimes incredibly considerate. Now it's time we talk about how to apply it responsibly – with the power to systematically influence people's behaviour comes the need to seriously consider the implications.
• Is it applied responsibly?
• Can it be applied responsibly?
• Are all the applications in all sectors equal?
• Where is it controversial, and where not controversial?
• Boundaries/applications have been tested. Are there more to test?
As you have been an tremendously important part of the last five years, post your questions ahead of the evening here on Meetup and Nathalie (Chair) will collate and select themes, questions, and topics.
Panel!
