More about this course
  • Understanding human behavior can be quite challenging, even with numerous theories available. The fact that we're still struggling raises the question: why are we failing? Is it because we're not applying the theories properly, or could there be issues with the theories themselves? In this course, we'll explore the fascinating world of human behavior and the reasons behind our difficulties in understanding it. We'll investigate whether the problem lies in how we use the existing theories or if the theories themselves need improvement. Along the way, we'll also learn new strategies to better understand and influence human behavior.
  • This course is suitable for beginners and those with some knowledge, including professionals, students, and enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds. It is designed for individuals of all backgrounds and professions who are interested in exploring the world of human behavior.
  • By the end of this course, you'll be able to:
  • 1. Develop a better understanding of traditional human behavior theories.
  • 2. Establish a connection between the human brain and behavior.
