Do we make all our decisions on our own? How much are we affected and in what direction? Why is it so difficult to change ingrained behaviors? Nudging is about giving people a push towards a pre-selected decision. Used correctly, it helps us make sustainable decisions, both for ourselves, society and the planet.
Erik Wästlund is associate professor in psychology at the Center for Service Research at Karlstad University. His research is about decision-making, behavior change and how we are influenced and can influence with the help of digital technology. Erik explains what nudging is and what possibilities, but also dangers, exist with the method.

TECH TALK VÄRMLAND – WHAT & HOW?
TechTalk Värmland focuses on how we as people, companies and organizations are affected by the ongoing digitization. The purpose of the meetings is to learn from each other, be inspired and develop.
If you want, you can bring your own lunch box and heat it in the Coffice or pick up food from the Nova restaurant on the ground floor. We offer coffee on site. The location is at Compare at Karlstad Innovation Park unless otherwise stated.
Feel free to join the Facebook group TechTalk Värmland so you will receive ongoing information about what is happening and the opportunity to discuss before and after the meetings. Otherwise, just show up, no registration required.
