Behavioural Insights Training

People are irrational. That irrationality affects every aspect of our lives, every day. If we were more rational, we’d start to save in our early years, we’d exercise more regularly and maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle, and at work, we’d always deliver effectively, without prompting.

Behavioural Insights gives us a better understanding of human behaviour and the biases that affect our decision making.  Understanding our own biases helps us to better manage ourselves. Understanding other people’s biases helps us to improve our interactions with them.

At Carr Communications, we can work with you to apply this understanding. Our approach is backed by the best research from economics, psychology and other social sciences. It is then applied using rigorous methodologies to generate significant impact for our clients.

What ARE Behavioural INSIGHTS?

Behavioural Insights brings together cutting-edge thinking from Economics (Behavioural Economics) and Psychology (Behavioural Science) to understand why people behave the way they do. The area boasts Nobel Prize winners and has been endorsed by governments across the globe.

 

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Clients failing to engage your services after you’ve sent them a comprehensive explanation of your company
  • Customers sticking with current providers even though you offer better value
  • Team members leaving reports to the very last minute before a deadline
  • Employees responding negatively to an exciting change within your organisation

Behavioural Insights offers proven and tested solutions to these issues and helps bring about behaviour change in your clients, your team members, and even yourself.

How can Behavioural Insights support changes in behaviour?

Think say do diagram

Our experts devise and test solutions daily for client issues in areas as diverse as financial services, internal communications, and environmental protection. For the past decade, we have been applying behavioural insights, offering clients scientifically tested approaches to communication.

Our approach is based around a simple three factor model of understanding what people think, say and do. Communications and behaviour change interventions are designed to change what people think, say and do, so that’s where we start.

We use methods from Behavioural Insights which remove biased responses to gain a deeper understanding of what factors are driving current behaviour. We then analyse the results and devise a communication and behaviour change plan to bring about an impactful change in what your audience thinks, says and does.
