Anderson Lifelong Learning: Choice Architecture
Contact: Anderson Lifelong Learning
Organizer: UCLA Anderson
Event Description
Leaders succeed or fail largely based on the decisions they make and their ability to positively influence the decisions of others.
Craig Fox, Harold Williams Chair and Professor of Management and Area Chair, will explore ways in which decision makers fall short of idealized models of rational behavior.
Learn how leaders can structure choice environments to promote better decisions within their organizations. Examine tools of choice architecture, drawing on the disciplines of behavioral economics and experimental psychology, including the Nobel Prize-winning work of Daniel Kahneman and Richard Thaler.
