The Human Risk Podcast28 Jan 2020

Tim Houlihan and Dr Kurt Nelson on Behavioral Grooves

In this episode, I welcome two of my favourite podcasters onto the show. Tim Houlihan and Kurt Nelson are the hosts of the fabulous Behavioral Grooves podcast, which you'll find wherever you get your quality audio content. And also right here: https://behavioralgrooves.com/

Not only are they accomplished BeSci podcasters, with some wonderful stories to tell about their show, but they're also experienced BeSci practitioners in their own right.

Tim founded a consultancy in applied behavioral sciences built on more than a dozen years of working with academic partners from Carnegie Mellon, Duke, Columbia, Quinnipiac, Monmouth, University of Houston, and the University of St. Thomas to name a few.

Kurt earned his doctorate in industrial and organizational psychology and founded his own consultancy more than 20 years ago to focus on the application of behavioral science in corporate settings. His clients are a who’s who of Fortune 500 companies

In this wide-ranging discussion, we talk about HR (Human Resources, rather than Human Risk!) and explore how organisations can improve the way they manage human capital and therefore reduce Human Risk. We end the show with joint commitments: mine was to release this epsiode before the end of January. To find out what theirs was, have a listen!
