Enhance your skills as a communication professional
As humans, we don't process everything on a conscious level - the subconscious mind plays a crucial role in how people think, make decisions, and behave. By understanding how this unconscious works, we are able to influence people in a more impactful way.
Increase your impact in the public sector
In this Masterclass, we delve into the value of understanding human behaviour with Yolanda Wubben. How can you convey your standpoint as clearly as possible? How can you ensure that your input is valued? How can you increase your impact?
We not only cover theory but also provide practical tools and techniques that can be applied directly in your daily work. This is done based on the successful book (which you will receive a copy of) 'Don't Push Me!'.

DUO’s tick box: how the government uses behavioural principles
The government uses insights from behavioural science to guide its communication with citizens. This sometimes involves trial and error. DUO's 'tick box' is a well-known example. But first, let’s start with a bit of theory: the 'paradox of choice' briefly implies that we like choice, but don't like to choose. (Viewing tip: watch this TEDTalk by psychologist Barry Schwartz who coined this term). The more choices our brain has to process, the harder it becomes to choose. Sometimes it even leads to us making no choice at all. Anyone who has ever stood in front of the dessert shelf in a French Hypermarché can relate to this. There is even a scientific term for this phenomenon: choice paralysis.Lire la suite

How behavioural science can help marketers understand (and influence) their customers' behaviour
Humans are not as rational as we think. To protect our brain from structural overload, we make a large part of our daily decisions 'on autopilot'. And by a large part I mean: more than 95%. Believe me, no matter how blue (DISC personality type) you are, this applies to everyone.Lire la suite
