What Program Alumni Say

“The tools and learnings from this program are practical and widely applicable. Although Behavioural Insights have successfully been used at the societal level to shape public policy, I have found them to be particularly helpful in the business and corporate environment, for achieving and effectively managing change in the workplace. The program had a good balance of theory combined with practical application that positioned me well to actually implement what I had learned.”
