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.
