Enhance your team's persuasive strategies and influence with Cass Sunstein, speaker, professor at Harvard Law School.


Cass Sunstein is a prominent authority on the application of behavioural economics to improve persuasion and influence within organisations and society at large. His insights into human behaviour and decision-making processes have made him a sought-after voice in discussions about policy and regulation. With a distinguished career as a legal scholar, Cass has received numerous accolades, including the prestigious Holberg Prize, recognising his contributions to the field. He is perhaps best known as the co-author of the New York Times bestseller "Nudge," which has had a profound impact on how policymakers and businesses approach decision-making. His recent work, "Noise," has also garnered critical acclaim, further establishing his expertise in understanding the complexities of human judgement. An upcoming book, "Look Again," is set to be released in 2024, promising to add to his influential body of work. Cass's experience extends beyond academia; he served as the Administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, where he applied his knowledge to real-world challenges in governance and public policy. Currently, he is a professor at Harvard Law School, where he continues to educate and inspire the next generation of leaders in law and public policy. His ability to translate complex concepts into practical strategies makes his insights invaluable for anyone interested in enhancing their understanding of human behaviour and its implications for decision-making. Cass's work not only informs academic discourse but also provides actionable guidance for organisations seeking to navigate the intricacies of influence and persuasion in today's world.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
