Anthony and I discuss the dimensions of Daniel Kahneman's legacy; the man, his work, and his impact. The conversation ranges from how Kahneman's childhood interaction with a Nazi officer spurred his work on happiness, how Anthony and I read and re-read the books written by and about Kahneman, the different ways we have each applied the lessons we have learnt from him, and what Kahneman's death will mean going forward.

Changing the context to change behaviour, with Conor Wynn
In this conversation with Conor Wynn we discuss his PhD research related to cultural change at a large engineering firm. The discussion covers the role of incentives versus personality & identity; the use of simple decision-making heuristics versus detailed analysis; the need to follow procedures versus being creative and open to change; and the role of social influence and stress. The discussion is relevant for anyone who has a business problem for which cultural change is required.
