Next Tuesday come and hear Juliette Tobias-Webb.
How can we actually enable stronger action on climate change using behavioural insights?
Dr Juliette Tobias-Webb is a Chief Behavioural Scientist, Senior MBA Lecturer and one of 60 women in Australia nominated as a Superstar of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths). Dr Juliette has a PhD in Experimental Psychology from Cambridge University (focused on gambling behaviour) and has worked for a range of leading government and corporate organisations to design better products and services for human decision making and behaviour change.
With the rise in polarisation, it is important to reframe how we think about changing someone's mind. If you want to bridge the gap, it’s more productive to appeal to someone’s identity, motivations, and social networks than to their logic. Dr Juliette will present evidence from psychological science to help us understand why we are polarised, how we can shift people’s beliefs and judgements, and how we can create sustainable behavioural change (without changing people's minds).
The meeting will be held at Piato Restaurant 123 Blues Point Road, McMahons Point at 7:00 am for 7:15 a.m. start. We finish promptly at 8:30 a.m. At about 7:30 a.m., Juliette will talk for about 30 minutes, followed by questions and breakfast is served during the talk.
