How do you grab people's attention, increase someone's motivation, or boost customer satisfaction? Drawing on psychology, marketing, and economics, this course provides future managers, analysts, consultants, and advisors with strategic insights for influencing customer behavior within and outside of traditional marketing problems. By the end of this seven-week course, students will be able to (1) analyze theoretical and empirical findings on consumer behavior and (2) apply these insights to provide novel recommendations for how companies can change customer behavior. Along the way, students will be challenged to think differently about how people arrive at the judgments and choices they do, and how these choices ultimately affect their well-being. Students will also be able to assess themselves as a target of influence from marketers and media, gaining insights into their own decisions and behavior. The premise of the course is that understanding consumer psychology has powerful business and personal implications.
