We’re honored to welcome Ayelet Fishbach, a leading expert on human motivation and decision-making, and the Eric J. Gleacher Distinguished Service Professor of Behavioral Science and Marketing at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

A past president of the Society for the Science of Motivation and the International Social Cognition Network, Fishbach is the award-winning author of Get it Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation. Her work has earned top honors, including SESP’s Best Dissertation and Career Trajectory Awards, the Society for Consumer Psychology’s Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award, the Fulbright Educational Foundation Award, and the University of Chicago’s Provost’s Teaching Award.
