Human behaviour is at the heart of what we do and Dan Ariely is one of our favourite speakers on the topic. This TED talk focuses on why it is that our behaviours so often fail to live up to our good intentions. Some great tips and ideas to consider when making changes not only for ourselves but when trying to encourage change in those around us. Even if just getting our kids to hang their towels up!

Professor Steve Peters – The Chimp Paradox

We love this book because it goes a long way towards explaining why our actions and behaviours often don’t live up to our good intentions. The recognition that different parts of our brain are operating simultaneously at any given moment, often in competition with each other, helps us to see our own emotions and behaviours and those of others around us in a whole new light. In our view this is essential reading for anyone who is looking to influence human behaviour or understand their own. For those who want a quick intro, the link will take you to his TED talk.
