Speaking Inquiries

I enjoy giving talks about social psychology topics to both academic audiences and to the general public. I have won a number of awards for my teaching and lecturing, If you'd like to discuss arrangements for a lecture or workshop, either contact my literary agent, Kris Dahl of International Creative Management (KDahl@icmtalent.com), or e-mail me directly (robertle@csufresno.edu).

Examples of recent talks: 1. Topics related to my book, "The Power of Persuasion: How We're Bought and Sold." For example:
  • "Persuasion, Manipulation and Mind Control"
  • "The Psychology of Selling: My Brief Career as a Used Car Salesman"
2. Topics related to my book on the psychology of time and culture. For example:
  • "A Geography of Time"
  • "Money, Time and Happiness"
3. My field experiments on helping behavior in cities around the United States and the world:
  • "The Kindness of Strangers: Where do People Help?"
