In-person applied training
Apply behavioral science to adoption of new ways of working.
Across six weekly 150-minute sessions, participants develop one workplace case from behavioral definition through diagnosis, intervention design, stakeholder engagement, measurement, and final review.
- Program
- Six weekly sessions
- Each session
- 150 minutes: lesson and applied workshop

Six-session syllabus
Move from a broad adoption problem to a case the team can act on.
Each week adds one piece to the same case. Participants bring evidence from work, test their reasoning with peers, and revise the case before the final presentation.
