My new blog post asks “How can we get knowledge out of the halls of academia and into the halls of government?” davispier.ca/news/how-much-…

Two of my favorites! @empathizeothers and Alfred on the same podcast. These two have been great influences as I’ve worked to better understand issues of inclusion and systemic racism. Can’t wait to listen!

Excited to share the latest thinking from our team at Davis Pier around social innovation labs and how government can use them to solve complex problems - needing to create the conditions for success and then step back. davispier.ca/social-innovat…

We’re very happy to announce two new Board members for our social innovation outpost. Looking very forward to working with both of them!

Finally got back to Toronto for the first time in 18 months. It was great to connect with my Davis Pier Consulting Ontario colleagues in person! It’s been too long!

Innovation labs have become a popular tool to solve complex social problems. We’re hosting a webinar with DM Nancy MacLellan and Nick Jennery, ED of @feednovascotia, discussing the opportunities & challenges labs present. Join us on Nov. 16 at 4pm! us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

This is a great take on how behavioural science can have an even larger impact on systems. Thanks to Heather Devine 🇨🇦 for sharing!

Anyone working with those experiencing poverty, needs to read and understand these concepts. People aren’t poor simply because they make “bad decisions”; they make “bad decisions” because they’re poor.

I think I just watched Dr. Strang fall on his sword about not putting in tighter restrictions last week. @StrangRobert has nothing to be even a bit apologetic about! #Omicron was unpredictable. The science and evidence are just rolling in now. Let’s show him our support!

The pic speaks for itself.

So many great examples of leadership around applied research and innovation in here. Proud to be both a Dal alum and current collaborator.

It’s been a pretty awesome and surreal ride! 8 years for Davis Pier!

We’ve launched our latest whitepaper — Nudging Government to Use Evidence. We present four strategies, informed by behavioural science, that government and researchers can deploy to improve the use of evidence in policy decisions. davispier.ca/nudging-govern…

We are constantly walking the tightrope between purpose and profit. B Corp Certification is the gold standard for businesses looking to make a positive impact on society. I am incredibly proud that our team’s commitment to Davis Pier’s mission and vision has been recognized.

Heading to Mexico City for a few weeks with my son Isaac and the rest of the Nova Scotia contingent! Super proud of the kid!!

Big day tomorrow for Team Canada in Mexico City!

A Davis Pier Consulting tradition! The 4th ever “Astonishing Race” starts today!

The team at HopeBlooms gave me and a few colleagues at Davis Pier Consulting a tour and overview of what they’re doing today. I was blown away. I learned so much…they are the epitome of social innovation.
