121. Meet GAABS! Interview with founding members of the Global Association of Applied Behavioral Scientists

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In today’s episode, I’m so honored to introduce you to four of the founding members of the newly formed GAABS, the Global Association of Applied Behavioral Scientists, which officially launched in September of 2020. I’m joined by Torben Emmerling of Affective Advisory, Nuala Walsh of Mindequity, Madeline Quinlan of Salient Behavioural Consultants, and Dario Krpan of the London School of Economics. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As a rapidly growing and currently unregulated field, GAABS comes in as the world’s first independent organization representing the interests of applied behavioral scientists, primarily those working in the private sector, and has an impressive list of founders, starting members, and advisory board members, including Robert Cialdini and Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman. It is going to be an increasingly valuable and important organization as the years’ pass, and I’m so excited to be here to introduce you to the group in its infancy. </span></p> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Show Notes:</span></h3> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">[00:47] Today on the show I am joined by the four founding members of the Global Association of Applied Behavioral Scientists (GAABS), which officially launched September of 2020.</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">[03:31] Torben Emmerling is the Founder and Managing Partner of Affective Advisory, a fully specialized behavioral science firm based in Switzerland. </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">[04:21] Nuala Walsh is the founder of Mindequity.
