Influencing BehaviorThe Study of Behavioral Science, our understanding of it and how it can be applied has grown incredibly in recent years. However, advertisers have been using it for decades as they set about applying it in order to influence their potential customers’ behavior.There are many factor which may influence how we may react to a particular message.Let us briefly consider the introduction of our new IT Service Desk. How might our understanding of Behavioral Science help shape our strategy?1. We are heavily influenced by who communicates the informationEnsure staff notices relating to change are owned by Senior IT Director2. We respond to incentives. E.G. we are more likely to keep a dental appointment if there is a charge for cancelingShort video placed on intranet to show how a call not logged in the new way will not be assigned a reference or a priority. Calls then not picked up by Service Desk staff and consequently will go unnoticed. Those logged afterwards, and perhaps relating to less important issues, will be tackled and closed while our issue remains.3. We are strongly influenced by wishing to fit in with the majorityPosters to be displayed in work areas showing weekly stats on number of calls logged with Service Desk during previous week to show the level of participation.4. We tend to go with the flow rather than being seen to opt out.Introduce a button on the intranet which links automatically to and email address for new Service Desk.5. We are more likely to engage if the message is relevant to us
Use staff from various work areas in our posters. Use real life issues from various work areas in our video.
6. Our behavior can be influenced by prompts which suggest to us that it is okay to behave in a certain way. E.G. we see litter lying around and are therefore more likely to see it being “ okay” to drop our litter
Have pre go-live meeting with managers from each area to ensure that they support the initiative and are seen to be contacting the Service Desk in keeping with the new directive.
7. Emotional associations can influence how we will behave
Show on video the impact of a call being missed. Perhaps the end customer does not get the service they require. Show the real life impact of this e.g. our member of staff could not open a particular customer record, logged call with Service Desk incorrectly. Customer therefore did not receive goods or help needed meaning disruption to their plans, child’s birthday present not delivered, car not fixed meaning missed hospital visit.
8. Having contracted to a particular agreement or code of conduct we seek to honor this commitment
Reinforce message with individual email to all staff. Include a respond button which has to be clicked to show that email has been read and understood.
9. We tent to act in ways which make us feel better about ourselves
Show on video the impact of getting it right. Take examples from “Affects” and show how things went well when our colleague followed correct procedure.
