The Future of Responsible Business and Behavioural Science w/ More Than Now
Details
Many of us are grappling with wicked problems surrounding responsible business practice. Whether that's navigating equity and inclusion within organisational cultures, ensuring company values translate into action or empowering individuals and teams to respect human rights across supply chains.
Katryn Wright and Guusje Lindemann will be sharing their expertise in using behavioural science experiments to design interventions that really impact business practices.
We're super excited to have Katryn and Guusje introduce some principles of behavioural science experimentation with some excellent case studies.
Join us and learn more about;
- The importance of focusing on behaviour and what people do versus what people say they do.
- The misconception that big problems require big solutions. Instead advocating for lots of little solutions, experimentally tested.
- How when it comes to building inclusive cultures, leadership training doesn't work but focused interventions can
Come explore the future of responsible business with us!
At the end of the talk will have a Q&A with Katryn and Gus.
