As a followup to his talk in September, we are fortunate to have Dr. Robert Prentice continue his talk on "Why It's Hard to Be the Kind of Person Your Dog Thinks You Are."
The science of behavioral ethics, which studies how and why people make the ethical (and unethical) choices they do, has revealed that good people often do bad things even though they have the best of intentions. For those of us who desire to live lives of integrity, it pays to be familiar with this research. You can find some fascinating videos by Dr. Prentice and team
