The document discusses different types of inductive arguments including generalizations, analogies, and causal arguments. It provides examples of each type and evaluates how to analyze inductive arguments. The key points are: inductive arguments claim their conclusions probably rather than absolutely follow from premises; there are three common types - generalizations draw conclusions about groups from samples, analogies compare two things based on similarities, and causal arguments claim one event causes another; careful evaluation of inductive arguments includes assessing sample size and bias for generalizations, relevant similarities for analogies, and strength of evidence for causal relationships.
The document discusses how neuroscience research shows that social needs are processed in the brain similarly to survival needs like food and water. When people feel excluded or experience a loss of status, the brain's threat response is activated. Leaders are encouraged to understand how perceptions of status, certainty, autonomy, relatedness, and fairness can trigger the brain's threat or reward centers. By optimizing these social factors in the workplace, leaders can create emotional safety, increase engagement, and improve performance. The document advocates training leaders to positively impact social dynamics using the "SCARF" model of collaboration.
SDL added strategists to a UX team (UX STRAT Europe 2015)Peter Boersma
This presentation shows how UX strategists contribute to the way SDL helps the world's best brands deliver exceptional customer experiences. Using several of our enterprise software product releases as examples, Peter shows how he and his fellow UX strategists are promoting service design and design thinking, how they develop visions and roadmaps for products and cross-product capabilities, and how they collect user and usage data. He also talks about the link between UX Strategy and Product Management, and the future of UX Strategists at SDL.
How to keep focus on the actual problems to solve. From framing the work in the right way to the actual design and build of services. These slides contain useful tips and practical tools to help you help teams focus on what it is we're trying to change or achieve - and avoid "just building more stuff".

Today’s most beloved technology products and services balance design and engineering in a way that perfectly blends form and function. Businesses started by designers have created billions of dollars of value, are raising billions in capital, and VC firms increasingly see the importance of design. The third annual Design in Tech Report examines how design trends are revolutionizing the entrepreneurial and corporate ecosystems in tech. This report covers related M&A activity, new patterns in creativity × business, and the rise of computational design.
This document discusses whistleblowing and its value. It defines whistleblowing and outlines the types of whistleblowing. It discusses criteria for justifiable whistleblowing and considerations around when and how to blow the whistle. The document notes both pros and cons of whistleblowing. It examines components of effective whistleblowing policies and discusses how to create a culture where people feel comfortable speaking up about issues. Overall, the document argues that whistleblowing can have significant value by helping to curb wrongdoing, strengthen governance, and protect companies and the public.

The document discusses orchestrating buy-in for successful change. It provides techniques for gaining buy-in from stakeholders like families, boards of directors, and employees. These include starting with the end in mind by clarifying how stakeholders benefit and how success is measured. Case studies show how buy-in was achieved in manufacturing through cross-functional teams, process mapping, and metrics-driven accountability. Orchestrating buy-in is key to avoiding the high failure rates of many change initiatives.
The document discusses opinion leadership and celebrity endorsement in marketing. It defines opinion leadership as the informal influence one person has over others' attitudes or behaviors. There are four main methods to measure opinion leadership: self-designation, sociometric, key informant, and objective. Celebrity endorsement uses famous individuals to promote brands and can boost credibility but requires high costs. Factors like the celebrity's reputation and relevance to the brand must be considered for a successful campaign.
Urgent problems, rational solutions and passionate patient advocates are necessary but not sufficient to create change in health care organisations.
Lois Kelly and Carmen Medina of Rebels at Work will look at common mistakes in developing and introducing new ideas and discuss important and often overlooked organizational, interpersonal and personal self-awareness practices needed to navigate the journey from ‘I see a problem and have an idea’ to the idea being adopted.

Using Behavioral Science to Secure Your OrganizationMasha Sedova
For decades security awareness programs have been based on the assumption that employees don’t know the correct course of action and with the right training, they will start performing more securely. However, this approach has not proven to be effective. A second dimension needs to be considered in security behavior change: motivation. This talk will explore how and when to motivate employees to security action. It will also discuss how to “surf” motivation generated by both predictable and unpredictable security events to drive security behavior change in a workforce. Finally, this talk will explain how to measure changes in employees’ security behaviors and how practitioners can create meaningful metrics. This was the keynote for Source Boston 2018.
People can influence others through logical, emotional, and cooperative appeals. Logical appeals use facts and data to persuade others. Emotional appeals connect ideas to individual values and feelings. Cooperative appeals involve collaboration and working together towards mutual goals. Influencing others effectively requires understanding human psychology and motivations. Research has identified six universal principles that guide decision making: reciprocation, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and social proof. Mastering influence requires applying these principles strategically and developing skills like building relationships and demonstrating expertise.
Apply the science of decision making to improve the effectiveness of your communications. This is helpful for web sites, brochures, political campaigns, and all forms of advertising and communication. Get a competitive advantage in your communications.
Hybrid Workplace Harassment: Are You Protecting Your Company from Hidden Thre...Case IQ
In today’s “new world of work,” many organizations run on a hybrid model, with some employees working remotely and others in the physical office. While this set-up is convenient, it can cause unique interpersonal issues between employees.
Reduced face-to-face communication makes it harder for teams to bond, while making it easier for harassers to get away with bad behavior. To reduce harassment incidents in your hybrid workplace, you need to foster a culture of openness, willingness to learn, and compassion.
Join workplace investigation and executive management expert Kenneth McCarthy as he outlines how to address and prevent hybrid workplace harassment incidents.

Persuasion: 6 Ways to Influence People (and how to say no)Yee Pam
We might not all be sales oriented, but all of us would have to persuade someone at a point. Based on the book by Robert Cialdini, here are the 6 rules of influencing others (and how you can avoid being influenced).
The document discusses positive deviance (PD), an approach to solving problems by identifying uncommon practices among individuals that enable them to find better solutions than others facing the same challenges. It provides examples of PD's success in reducing MRSA infections and encourages participants to identify positive deviants in their own organizations who could help develop new behaviors to address problems. The key aspects of the PD process involve defining the problem, determining positive deviants, discovering their uncommon practices, designing ways to spread these practices, and continually evaluating effectiveness.

The key aspects of the PD process involve defining the problem, determining positive deviants, discovering their uncommon practices, designing ways to spread these practices, and continually evaluating effectiveness.
This document discusses compliance techniques and how people can be influenced to comply with requests. It describes research by Robert Cialdini who identified six principles of compliance: reciprocity, commitment, scarcity, conformity, authority, and liking. Examples are given of how marketers and fundraisers leverage these principles, such as offering a small initial commitment to induce further compliance. The document also examines research on specific techniques like foot-in-the-door and lowballing. Ethical considerations around compliance research are mentioned.
One of my very first public presentations, this was an internal training on Sales Techniques. It\'s on my list for a redo, as since this I have learned a lot more about presentations and powerpoint.
This document provides an overview of key concepts in public relations including:
1) Defining publics and prioritizing stakeholder groups. Internal and external publics should be identified for an online portfolio.
2) Comparing internal PR with external PR and the influence of primary publics on message delivery.
3) Discussing ethical guidelines around accuracy, honesty, and avoiding false or misleading information. Libel laws and issues of privacy and copyright are also pertinent.
4) Explaining the difference between persuasion and manipulation in opinion formation and the challenges of changing attitudes, beliefs, and opinions over time. Designs for effective persuasion must consider the audience.
The document discusses principles of social media marketing and metrics. It provides guidance on how to increase transparency and authenticity when corporate representatives communicate through social media. This includes owning up to mistakes, being clear about who posts to corporate accounts, acknowledging customer questions, and ensuring organizational alignment behind messaging. The document also discusses challenges in measuring the impact of social media efforts and questions organizations should consider when selecting appropriate metrics.
The document provides a summary of techniques for increasing marketing effectiveness based on principles of behavioral economics and social proof. It discusses how Donald Trump has effectively used social proof in his campaign by consistently promoting endorsements, polls, and images that show large crowds. The document then provides examples of how businesses can apply these principles by using endorsements, highlighting positive reviews and metrics, and maintaining a consistent message. The overall summary is that focusing on how consumers make decisions through principles like social proof can be an inexpensive way for businesses to improve conversion rates.

Regression to the mean
A two-systems view of regression

Observations
The counties in which the incidence of kidney cancer is lowest are mostly rural, sparsely populated in the Midwest, the South, and the West
Why? The clean living of the rural lifestyle. No air pollution, no water pollution, fresh food without additives.
Observations
The counties in which the incidence of kidney cancer is highest are mostly rural, sparsely populated in the Midwest, the South, and the West
Why? Poverty of rural lifestyle—no access to good medical care, too much alcohol, too much tobacco.
Our mind & statistics
Explanation has nothing to do with rural life
System 1 excels in one form of thinking: it automatically and effortlessly establishes causal connections between events…
even when supporting data is minimal or totally absent
We are insensitive to sample size or reliability of data.
Sample of 150 or 3000, who cares?
Why? WYSIATI and system 1 is gullible.
Our mind & statistics
We know about sample size!
But often can’t help ourselves.
Did you initially notice “sparsely populated”?
What is the difference?
Large samples are more precise than small samples.
Small samples yield extreme results more often than large samples do.
Hence, small counties, less people so …?
Certainty & doubt
Our mind has a preference for sliding into certainty over maintaining doubt
System 1: rich image with poor evidence
Even in science:
Small sample experiment, complex phenomenon.
Exercise 1
Cause & Chance
We have an inclination to causal thinking
Statistics is different because it focuses on what could have happened instead
The null-hypothesis
Randomness sometimes appears as a pattern
Hot hand: 3 or 4 scores in a row
basketball hot hand, team of players who scores 3 or 4 times in a row is now given more passes and extra defended. Research: this sequence of successes and missed shot fits all the conditions of random. The hot hand is in the eye of the beholder. Massive and widespread cognitive illusion.

Speaking of the Law of Small Numbers
“Yes, the studio has had three successful films since the new CEO took over. But it is too early to declare he has a hot hand.”
“The sample of observations is too small to make any inferences. Let’s not follow the law of small numbers.”
“I plan to keep the results of the experiment secret until we have a sufficiently large sample. Otherwise we will face pressure to reach a conclusion prematurely.”
Anchors
Anchoring effect: considering a particular value from an unknown quantity before estimating that quantity
Question: was Ibn Taymiyyah younger or older than 114 years old when he passed away?
What is the anchor? 114 years old.

This document summarizes key findings from Stanley Milgram's famous obedience studies from the 1960s. It discusses how Milgram was trying to understand under what conditions people would obey commands from an authority figure, even if it meant harming another person. It describes Milgram's experimental setup where participants were told to administer electric shocks to a "learner" and how most participants (65%) continued shocking even after the learner protested in pain. The document also discusses factors that influenced obedience rates, such as proximity to the victim and authority figure. It concludes with Milgram's view that governments can command much obedience from subjects due to their prestige and authority.
This document provides a summary of a presentation on persuasive e-commerce. It discusses how online conversion rates are typically much lower than offline rates due to a lack of certain in-person factors. It then covers cognitive biases and how the unconscious mind works, noting most decisions are made unconsciously. Finally, it outlines different persuasion techniques like social proof, scarcity, and removing friction that can be applied to e-commerce to increase online conversions. The presentation concludes with a discussion of how personalized, automated persuasion may be used in the future to target individual customers.

Notice (1) that the organization is putting out a message that they know their fans will like. Other times they encourage their fans to like it and they generate tens of thousands of likes and thousands of comments. However, those don’t directly translate into a ROI. But using the principle of commitment and consistency they ask the fans, one day later, to purchase a shirt that has that very message on it.
This pattern has been found to be highly effective. In 1966 psychologists Jonathan Freedman and Scott Fraser published a study where they asked homeowners to put obnoxiously large and unsightly sign in their yard that said “Drive Carefully.” Understandably the conversion (or compliance) rate was rather low, 17 percent. However, the researchers were able to get the conversion rate up to 76 percent by changing one simple variable. For the group that converted at 76 percent the researchers simply added an additional call to action a couple of weeks earlier. This time the call to action has a much lower cost. They asked the homeowners to put a small sticker in their window that said “Be a safe driver.” Almost all of the homeowners asked, agreed to put the sticker in their window. Then, two weeks later when asked to put the obnoxious sign in their yard, the researchers were able to attain the 76 percent conversion rate. This commitment and consistency principle has been shown in other studies and is clearly seen in the persuasion patterns in Being Conservative’s facebook strategy.
(2) “TODAY ONLY” for the t-shirt sales? Why would the organization limit t-shirt sales to one day? According to the scarcity principle it’s to trigger an action. Namely, the purchase of the shirt. And in conjunction with the commitment and consistency principle it allows the organization to leverage this principle while the fan’s previous consistent act, liking the post with the same quote, is still fresh in their minds. While the Internet seemingly makes anything you want available at any time of the day, the scarcity principle is often employed by online marketers to trigger an action. It’s a powerful and consistently fruitful persuasion pattern.
Also, notice (3) that they are using an image that many conservatives hold in high regard. Here, the organization is implementing a strategy that instantiates the liking principle and the authority principle. Research shows that persons are more likely to perform a call to action when it’s requested by or associated with someone who is attractive, similar to them, and/or familiar. By leveraging authority figures, social media friends, and other conservatives (page fans), Being Conservative is able to implement this persuasion pattern in a big way.

Asch already in the 1950’s did this amazingly cool experiment. He showed people the two cards here on the slide and asked, which line is as long as the line on the left: A, B, or C.
Well since most people are not morons, almost everyone chooses B (well, in his experiment with 35 people Asch identified one moron, the guy choose A..)
However, when we set the experiment up differently so that you can see and hear the answers of nine others before you are asked to give your answer, and if all of the other say, without hesitations, line number A, things change. Suddenly Asch had lots of morons: about 75% of his participants choose A if others had chosen A before them. We just say what other people say. We are
Begin at 4 minutes.In July 1961 (just three months after the start of the trial of German Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Jerusalem, Befehl is Befehl) Stanley Milgram setup an experiment in which a participant (the Teacher) allegedly had to test another participant (the Learner). The learner had had time to memorize a list of words and the teacher had to test the learner. When a faulty answer was given, the teacher could give an electroshock to the learner to “punish” him for not memorizing the list correctly. The teacher could not see the learner – he was in a different room – but could hear the learner vividly. Every time the learner made a mistake the teacher could crank up the power.
Now, the Experimenter – mister Milgram himself – wearing a lab coat and looking as scientific as possible was encouraging the teacher to crank up the dials. They started with a 10 volt shock, next a 20 volt, and increasing and increasing…
So, how far did people go? 450 volts was the maximum, and could actually kill someone. Do you think anyone went that far? Yes? Show off hands of people that think as much as 10% went up to the maximum, 20%? 30%?
Well 65% of people went up to 450 volts (after hearing screaming and pain from the learner). As long as the experimenter looked serious and authoritive he was able to convince a large majority of people from the street to go as far as kill somebody for not memorizing a word.
Without a white jacket and the other cues of scientific authority the compliance rate quickly goes down. Its authority cues that make us do pretty weird things.

Just a few years ago, the biggest struggle for companies was that they had too little data. Now they have too much. We collect, measure, implement all kinds of tools but in the end, all we see is the result of your customer’s actions. Just the tip of the iceberg. To influence that, you have to get behind the data.
