Sustainability by Design: How Behavior Design Can Save the Planet

Georgina Wilson-Powell, author, sustainability expert, and founder of sustainable living magazine "Pebble" leads us in conversation with Scone’s CEO Jan-Willem Rombouts and WONGDOODY’s Annie Stewart, Sr. Strategist, Sustainability & Innovation, as we discuss our findings and share how companies can design experiences to support behavior change and meet their sustainability goals.

Sustainable Innovation: Behavioral Psychology and Experimentation

Annie talks about how she’s combined learnings from lean experimentation and behavioral psychology to create a bespoke approach to sustainable innovation. Expect to come away with new tools for understanding people better, how experimentation can help control for behavioral complexities, and drive better results.

Sustainable Behavior By Design

Annie presents her bespoke approach and toolkit for tackling sustainable design, Sustainable Behavior design. She’ll walk you though the thinking behind the approach, and highlight several of the tools, including:

Predicting likelihood of change to more sustainable behaviors

Assigning a behavioral change profile

Design patterns to use for that profile

Driving long-term habit building
