We are delighted that Professor Paul Dolan, behavioural scientist at the LSE, is joining us in person for our inaugural All-Staff Wellbeing Festival on 17 July. In this inspirational session Paul will reveal that wellbeing isn't about how we think; it's about what we do. By making deliberate choices that bring us both pleasure and meaning, we can redesign our lives for maximum happiness - without thinking too hard about it.
Over the past three decades, Paul’s research in health economics and behavioural science has focussed on an array of issues, including valuing health states, equity in health, valuing safety, the impacts of COVID-19, social mobility, the theory and practice of nudging, and the use of financial incentives. The glue that has held this all together is developing tools to better capture the richness of the human condition for the purposes of individual, corporate and policy decisions.
Paul’s research has had significant impact. He is author of published by in March 2010 and he wrote the to monitor national wellbeing.
