Dr. Zak is the founding Director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies and Professor of Economics, Psychology and Management at Claremont Graduate University. He has degrees in mathematics and economics from San Diego State University, a Ph.D. in economics from University of Pennsylvania, and post-doctoral training in neuroimaging from Harvard. He’s also the author of books like The Moral Molecule: The Source of Love and Prosperity, and Trust Factor: The Science of Creating High-Performance Companies.In this episode, we talk about neuroeconomics, and the role that oxytocin plays in attachment, and in promoting trust among people that are part of the same organization or society. We go through how oxytocin evolved, and the kinds of prosocial behavior that it mediates. We also refer to other hormones, like testosterone and cortisol, and how they interact with oxytocin and might change its behavioral effects. And, finally, we talk about how we can foster trust in companies and other sorts of human organizations, reduce stress, increase productivity, and empower employees.Time Links:--Follow Dr. Richerson’s work:Faculty page: https://tinyurl.com/y8ctlfuePersonal website: https://www.pauljzak.com/Ofactor: https://ofactor.com/Books: https://tinyurl.com/ydygmv95--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, JUNOS, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, MIGUEL ESTRADA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JIM FRANK, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORD, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BRIAN RIVERA AND ADRIANO ANDRADE!I also leave you with the link to a recent montage video I did with the interviews I have released until the end of June 2018:https://youtu.be/efdb18WdZUoAnd check out my playlists on:PSYCHOLOGY: https://tinyurl.com/ybalf8kmPHILOSOPHY: https://tinyurl.com/yb6a7d3pANTHROPOLOGY: https://tinyurl.com/y8b42r7g
