Dan Ariely’s life, as a teenager, changed in a flash.  Dan was living in Israel when he was caught in an explosion and when he regained consciousness, he was in a burn ward, his home for the next three years.  Dan described his life there as a ‘side actor’.  His friends moved on with their lives, while his life and every decision involving his treatment were no longer his to control.  As he dealt with his horrific pain Dan came to the conclusion that so many of the decisions on how patients were treated, were wrong.  These insights and observations set Dan on a path of education and discovery.  Today, Dan Ariely is one of the world’s leading thinkers on how we think, feel and behave. Fifteen million people have watched Dan’s TED Talks. A multiple-best-selling NY Times Author, a Professor at Duke University, and a co-founder with another extraordinary mind, Kelly Peters of BEworks, a Canadian consultancy with a global reputation.
