Humanizing Rules: Bringing Behavioural Science to Ethics and Compliance is a hands-on, rigorous examination of the management and mitigation of the risk posed by the behaviour of people working in your organization. Using the latest findings and research from contemporary behavioural science, author Christian Hunt walks you through the implementation of effective compliance frameworks that work in tandem with common human tendencies.

The book debunks widely-held misconceptions and myths about risky behaviours and how to manage them, showing you how to efficiently and quickly reduce the likelihood of one of your employees, managers, or executives causing your firm substantial reputational or financial damage. You'll learn to go beyond mere reliance on the employee-employer relationship and dip into the nuts and bolts of why people act the way they do, as well as what you can do to ensure those actions are aligned with your company's ethical, regulatory, and legal obligations. An engaging and practical guide to using behavioural science to mitigate the risks posed by your organization's people, Humanizing Rules is the ideal manual for government, business, and third-sector leaders.
