We are getting stuck into the nuts and bolts of running behavioural science/BI teams within large (public and private sector) organisations at our #BehaviourallySpeaking meetup this evening. Researchers and practitioners, I'd like your take on where we should focus attention:
41%The 'need' for BI teams
18%Team location/structure
23%Measuring team impact
18%Required competencies

I had a great time with @DaveDuarte and @grightford yesterday, training teams from @PioneerFoodsSA on how to apply learnings from the behavioural sciences. Looking forward to the next one!

Two great new #behavioralscience books describe how much timing influences our lives and successes. I recommend both: 1. When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing - amzn.to/2DaoenC @DanielPink 2. The Power of Moments - amzn.to/2AXk3Ws

Company teams interested in applying learnings from the behavioural sciences - The pool of 'theories' (or insights) isn't the only dimension of the 'academic value proposition'. There are scientific techniques, procedures and ethical standards that are well worth considering too.
