“There was just no way I could say no”. That was how Sonali Zaveri felt about working with Ideas42 Ventures, after learning about the first cohort of entrepreneurs she would advise. Ideas42 Ventures is a venture studio that aims to solve massive social problems by helping founders with lived experience launch companies that address issues like poverty and inequality. The founders are selected based on their potential, their passion, and their lived experience – and unlike other venture studios they don't necessarily need a tech background, nor even a product idea on day one. On this episode of Crafted, Design and Operations Lead Sonali Zaveri shares how she coaches these founders, as well as why entrepreneurship is such a “privileged sport” — and what she's doing about that. We also discuss how Ideas42 Ventures uses behavioral science to design products that make lasting impact and why founders should be embarrassed by their first product. This is Crafted from Artium: a show about great products, and the people who make them. At Artium, we help startups and enterprises build incredible products, recruit high-performing teams, and achieve the culture of craft they need to build great software long after we're gone.

Ever wrestled with the fact that people often make horrible security decisions even though their employers have security awareness programs in place? It's often because we assume that being aware of something should naturally result in better behavior. Well... that's not the case. This episode takes a deep dive into the knowledge-intention-behavior gap where we are confronted with three realities of security awareness. And those realities lead us to the realization that we need to focus on behavior. Guests for this episode are all leaders in the fields of Behavioral Science. They are, BJ Fogg, Ph.D., author of Tiny Habits: the Small Changes that Change Everything, Matt Wallaert, author of Start at the End: How to Build Products That Create Change, and Alexandra Alhadeff, co-author of Deep Thought: A Cybersecurity Story.

Kevin Vallier, PhD is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Bowling Green State University, where he directs their Philosophy, Politics, Economics, and Law programs. Kevin’s interests span a wide spectrum including political philosophy, ethics, philosophy of religion, politics, and economics. He is the author of peer-reviewed book chapters and journal articles, and his recent books include Must Politics Be War? Restoring Our Trust in the Open Society (Oxford UP 2019) and, his newest book, Trust in a Polarized Age (Oxford UP 2020). We focused our discussion on Kevin’s philosophical viewpoint of political issues, traversing the axes of polarization and trust. We spent some time discussing how focusing on progress and process might be good short-term balms for our broken nation. We also asked him about potential solutions to our current situation in the United States and his answers might surprise you. Kevin offered approaches that only a political philosopher might have, and we enjoyed his unique perspective. His best tip for healing our nation’s divides (in the short term) might be as simple as joining a church or non-political non-profit organization to help your community. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Kevin Vallier. © 2020 Behavioral Grooves   Links Kevin Vallier, PhD: kevinvallier@gmail.com  Revolving Door: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolving_door_(politics) Ranked Choice Voting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranked_voting Trump/Obama Valedictorian Speech: https://time.com/5302250/obama-quote-graduation-speech/ Robert Cialdini, PhD: https://www.influenceatwork.com/robert-cialdini-phd/biography/ Ideas42: https://www.ideas42.org/ Coleman’s Boat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGaz0xKG060 Robber’s Cave Experiment: https://www.simplypsychology.org/robbers-cave.html Nudge.It North: https://www.nudgeitnorth.com/ Musical Links Dolly Parton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2RBS_U0GoQ Chet Atkins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6cXqM21KbE Alison Kraus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=To1_nOjlLBQ Maynard Ferguson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNbsnBZOwqE Sufjan Stevens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOvSy3yepd8 Gregorian chant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuK59jQ5bwU Valaam chant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMtyTXDc9Fw Byzantine notation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_music Organum: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGZJ8XQJcmk “Be Thou My Vision”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OUqRUAbl4w

Tackle the NYC Stormwater Design Challenge. Join the Nature Conservancy in New York, Decision Fish, Clicksuasion Labs and participants from the ideas42 2018 Behavioral Summit as we joined forces in our inaugural Design Challenge – the goal is to brainstorm ideas that use behavioral science to improve New York City’s approach to stormwater management. CHALLENGE Stormwater is a major water pollution source and is the only growing source of pollution in New York and many parts of the country. In older cities like New York, where raw sewage and stormwater are collected in the same pipes and transported to wastewater treatment plants, rain events or snow melts can overwhelm the water collection and treatment systems. This can lead to raw sewage flowing into surrounding rivers and lakes. This is a huge water quality and health hazard. There are innovative "green" infrastructure solutions that use vegetated features such as green roofs and rain gardens to intercept and treat stormwater before it enters any pipes. These are much less costly than "gray" infrastructure alternatives such as new sewers. Cities incentivize private landowners to host such green infrastructure solutions, but often with little take-up. How can we get more private landowners to participate? Your host, Brett Whysel, and the audience formed teams to design practical and effective solutions. Panelists: Annie Duke, Author, Professional Speaker & Decision Strategist Caroline Bauer, Design Studio Manager, NYC Mayors Office for Economic Opportunity Erin Sherman, Vice President, ideas42 Elizabeth Smith, Ph.D., Environmental Economist at The Nature Conservancy The Design Challenge was recorded with a live studio audience from the Nature Conservancy in New York, NY.

Number one, we believe that play is a fundamental right of childhood; it is the work of children.” “We realized through our community-built playgrounds that we could not address the problem at scale, and so we worked with Ideas42, a behavioral research firm, to figure out what are the barriers to play, and when we looked at those barriers, we found out that what needs to happen to be able to give access to all kids is to really make play everywhere.” “We really wanted to have this Play Everywhere Challenge to help spur these types of ideas of how you can infuse play into everyday spaces where kids and families are already spending time.” Resources:http://infiniteearthacademy.com/podcast/the-play-everywhere-challenge/ (Infinite Earth Radio Episode 053: Civil Rights and Access to Recreation and Open Space (Re-release)) with Robert Garcia https://kaboom.org/playability/play_everywhere (Play Everywhere Challenge) https://media.kaboom.org/app/assets/resources/000/001/440/original/The-Play-Everywhere-Playbook.pdf (The Play Everywhere Playbook) http://www.Kaboom.org (KaBOOM)
