We are delighted to announce that Rory Sutherland, Vice-Chairman of the Ogilvy Group UK has agreed to join us as one of the speakers at the 2011 Economics Teacher National Conference at the British Library on the 29th June.
Rory is a passionate and gifted communicator who has specialised in analysing how ideas drawn from behavioural economics can be harnessed in marketing and in developing public policy. His two TED
talks (Life Lessons from an Ad Man and Sweating the Small Stuff) have fast become legendary on the internet and a great hit with Economics teachers and students alike. You can view those talks using the links further below.
