If there are any PAP people reading this, do your leaders a favour and buy them Nudge by Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein when they next invite you for tea. There’s also a blog on it.
“the famous example of a “nudge” is at Schiphol Airport in Holland. Airport managers were fed up with the state of the gents. Men were none too accurate in their aim. Warnings and signs did no good so designers tried a “nudge”. A black fly was etched into the porcelain of each urinal – something to aim at. Spillages were reduced 80%.” Source
