6:30 PM - Marketing Club
Anthony Tasgal will deliver a paean to serendipity, insight and wit in a world obsessed with rationality, KPIs, metrics and ‘tick-boxing’.
He’ll cover 3 broad areas:
- Why so serious? The arithmocracy, the obsessive worship of data and facts and what behavioural economics shows us about the power of engaging emotions
- From haha to Aha: What can humour teach us about the identification and generation of insight
- What do M. Night Shyamalan’s films, Schrödinger’s cat and a goldfish tell us about insight? Not just what insight is, but how it feels
