About
ISSA and =mc consulting offer this 1-day online workshop to support organisations in using decision science to strengthen their impact.
(Repost from https://bit.ly/2MNDcT8)
Anyone involved in early years is keen to encourage others to behave more responsibly, socially, and positively. This can range from encouraging fathers to be more involved in parenting, to encouraging hygiene among children in coronavirus times, and persuading carers to act in ways that better support children’s development and learning. One proven effective approach is to use techniques borrowed from decision science. These techniques combine psychological and neurological insights that demonstrate how you can affect people’s behaviours using simple powerful ‘nudges.’
We will look at how to:
- Understand the key ideas underpinning decision science and behavioural economics
- Appreciate how to affect our rational decision-making style or irrational one
- Set up a ‘decision architecture’ to guide the audience’s decisions
- Use several key heuristics such a FOMO, defaults and loss aversion
- Affect the behaviour of adults in appropriate ways
- Affect the behaviour of children in appropriate ways
- Affect opinions and attitudes in the general population
The days will involve:
- Key practical advice for small to medium organisations
- Case studies of success
- Exercises and activities
- The chance to ask practical questions online
You will leave with the skills and confidence to use decision science in your work. Plus, a full set of notes.
