The Chinwag Psych conference is coming on May 9. Selected experts will be presenting talks on neuroscience, psychology and big data for business.

If you’re not sure why this event is for you, we have a Quick and Dirty Primer. The speakers are key, and they include Web Psychologist, Nathalie Nahai.

Nathalie recently published her book, Webs of Influence , a guide to discovering secret strategies that make us click.

Since its release she has been outlining why thoughtful design and marketing goes a long way.

Getting ready for the Chinwag Psych conference next month? On May 9, a you can find out how neuroscience, machine learning and psychology are good for business. 

One of the speakers sharing knowledge is Professor Karen Pine. She’s an author, a founding director of Do Something Different and holds the post of Professor of Developmental Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, so she knows a thing or two about how to motivate teams in business.

The underlying message for Do Something Different is learning by doing. So how does this apply to business? We had a chat with Karen about how changing your ways can help you professionally as well as personally.

In a new research 'Social media litigation: How prepared is your business?' nearly 35% of respondents, most of whom work professionally in social media have little or no knowledge of the law.

Perhaps the most glaring legal hole is confidential data. Whilst 76% of companies worry about their secrets slipping out through social media, only 61% aren't confident that their sensitive information is protected on social media platforms.

Immediate Future who published the research have published an infographic with the key findings.

The Chinwag Psych event is coming up fast - do you have your ticket? 

If you do, you’ll witness a compelling investigation inside the human mind, and how the results can be applied to business.

One of the speakers to catch is Benjamin Ellis. As the principle CEO of two businesses, Redcatco and SocialOptic, he has his eye on how people can work together better and which software can provide the insights on how that happens.

The Chinwag Psych event is just around the corner. You can still get your ticket for May 9 if you are interested in learning about how psychology, machine learning and neuroscience might be helpful to your business.

Toby Daniels, Founder of Social Media Week introduces Gender 50/50 and his company's commitment to striving to keep the balance.

In the words of Sheryl Sandberg:

“Women are held back by many things: bias, lack of opportunity and lack of flexibility. We also hold ourselves back. We don’t sit at the table; we don’t raise our hands; we don’t raise our voice. I believe our world would be a better place if half our companies and half our countries were run by women.”
