Rory Sutherland on research and behavioural economics
Rory Sutherland, vice chairman of Ogilvy Group UK and president of ad agency body IPA, believes behavioural economics offers an opportunity for marketing to grow its influence, and put an understanding of what makes people tick at the heart of business.
It could also finally give research some boardroom clout, and save it from being just “an elaborate job protection scheme for crap marketers”, he says.
