Book discussion on "How to Change" by Katy Milkman. Katy Milkman is best known for her award-winning research on identifying and overcoming barriers that prevent positive behavioral change. Her insights have been applied to topics such as savings, exercise, vaccination uptake, and discrimination.
Please get a copy of the book and be ready to discuss. Looking forward to seeing you
I was trained as an engineer, and I’ve found that thinking about change like an engineer comes in handy. You have to figure out what forces are working against you, and then science has lots of insights to offer about what exactly you can do to overcome those particular obstacles.
