Author & Speaker
I am currently writing Design for the Mind: Seven psychological principals of persuasive design, for Manning Publications. The book focuses on the application of psychological theory to digital design. You should be able to pre-order the book in the coming months. Please check back for more information.
I write about a broad range of topics. My current interests include the application of psychological theory to digital design, usability and design issues, and innovation and leadership development. I frequently publish on these topics and others in various venues.
I am available for speaking engagements and workshops on the topics I write about. I regularly present on these topics at professional conferences. I am willing to customize content, length, and activities for onsite workshops. Please contact me if you'd like more information on scheduling a speaking commitment.
