The text has a section related to the selection of intervention strategy (p 215). Review that section of the text and then listen to this conversation between Steven D. Levitt and Maya Shankar. Maya Shankar was the leader of a social and behavioral science team during the Obama administration. Steven Levitt is co-author of Freakonomics and a professor of economics at the University of Chicago. The conversation can be found at freakonomics.com as: Maya Shankar Is Changing People's Behavior and Her Own (People I (Mostly) Admire Ep. 34).

As you listen, what are at least two takeaways about being a change agent and choosing where and how to make change happen?

Consider:

Who set the goals... Maya's team or the agency leads?

Are mandates for change (telling without buy-in) successful in the longrun?

The entire conversation is a great listen... the segment from 0 to 22 minutes is a must.
