Here is an interview with Dan Ariely, professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University.

He shares valuable insights and opinions about a variety of topics like:

• extrinsic vs. intrinsic motivation
• how we should communicate with our colleagues and employees
• why beauraucracy is killing joy in your company

And, of course, we talked a lot about what he calls "misbelief", which is at the center of his newest book. So if you are curious about the ways misbeliefs impact our lives and society as a whole, while also understanding how and why they arise, I hope this interview will help you.
