Nudge for Good - Increasing Sponsor Effectiveness VABADD 2018Kay Fudala
Encouraging people to make better decisions is a large part of our role as change agents. We support many stakeholders, from senior leaders deciding how to shape the change, to end users deciding to adopt new ways of working.
We have all experienced sponsors who make not-so-rational decisions. To predict, and guide sponsor behavior we need to understand the choices they make, what their trade-offs are, and how they make them. What hurdles do sponsors face in implementing initiatives? What characteristics set the strong and effective sponsors apart from the rest? How can you as a change agent, nudge sponsors into making better decisions?
Behavioral economics can help shed light on the factors that guide everyday decisions. In this presentation, we will touch upon the rational and irrational forces that influence sponsor behavior. We will discuss practical strategies to increase sponsor effectiveness by leveraging these insights.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
