Understanding Behavioural Economics:

Behavioural economics incorporates knowledge, theories and principles from both psychology and economics to understand how people make decisions and how to formulate more effective solutions to social and economics problems. Identified as a ‘major disrupter’ (Ernst & Young Consulting), behavioural economics is set to shift how business, government and companies operate and is increasingly recognised as an essential business resource.  

With companies that implement behavioural economics principles outperforming their peers by 85% in sales growth and more than 25% in gross margin (Gallup Consulting), it’s no surprise that businesses are increasingly turning to behavioural economics in what has been dubbed the ‘Behavioural Revolution’.
