Olivier Oullier – Revisiting Consumer Behavior with Neuroscience

Olivier Oullier

Olivier Oullier‘s research investigates the brain mechanisms of information processing, influence and decision making to better understand consumer behavior. As a consultant, he advises organizations globally and develops evidence-informed operational engagement and behavior change strategies.

He talks about his proprietary methodology to measure the discripancies between what people say and what they do in real life: the gap between intention and action. He also discusses how the combination of portable technology allowing to track gaze and record brain activity changes our understanding of consumer behavior thanks to data collected in retail places. Finally he explains how emorationality consitutes a new framework to understanding consumer behavior.

Watch the short video below to learn what Olivier means by “The consumer has changed. The way to communicate to consumers has changed.”
