The Good, The Bad & The AdvertisingRory Sutherland, Vice Chairman of Ogilvy UK, on the art and power of persuasionHumans are persuaded to do things every day - and more often than not, it’s by the advertising industry.

And yet, when it comes to government policy, persuasion seems woefully underutilised. Our government seems to be stuck between two binary settings.

What if there was a deeper, underlying logic to explain our irrational selves? How can leaders tap into this ‘psycho-logic’ to drive their brands, products and businesses to global s...
