My New Book! In a Good Place
The science of human behavior has transformed how we understand our habits, decisions, and work. What does it have to say about our spaces? Hint – It’s not what you think.
“An indispensable guide” – Psychology Today
Behavioral science meets design
As a professor, my job is to try to uncover new knowledge, which I do by studying the connections between our inner world and our outer one, between our minds and our physical world. When I find ideas worth sharing, I do so, through speaking, books, and other media.
My Books
In a Good Place
How the Spaces Where We Live, Work, and Play Can Help Us Thrive
I hope you find IN A GOOD PLACE poignant and empowering, and that it helps you find more good places ‘out there’ and ‘in here,’ too.
Subtract
The Untapped Science of Less
I hope SUBTRACT reveals a whole class of options you’ve been missing in your quest to improve organizations, products, and ideas.
Speaking
I love sharing ideas with people who can put them to work in the world. I do a select number of engagements each year: keynotes and workshops; guest lectures for 5th-graders and coaching for executives. If you think I would be high-impact for your group, please reach out.
