Smart designs, settings and services change how we perceive options and ultimately affect our behaviors. Behavioral insights organize these effects in a systematic way and provide a wide range of nudging applications to better achieve an organization’s goals. Well-known examples at the company level are healthy workplace designs, nudges to de-bias recruitment decisions or to increase job satisfaction.
We are very honored that our MD Dr. Manuel Schubert and Dr. Fahad Alsharif have been invited to present their policy brief at the T20 virtual session.
The policy brief, titled “The G20 Protocol on Forced Migration”, proposes a new governance framework to manage the provision and allocation of host capacities on a global scale. More to come soon.

For those who are interested in today’s topics, have a look at the full syllabus below.

How can behavioral insights help startups, NGOs, corporates and governments to increase conversion? Our managing director, Dr. Manuel Schubert, explains what it needs to turn “don’ters” into “doers”.
