About the speaker
Dr. Piers Steel is one of the world’s foremost researchers and speakers on the science of motivation and procrastination. Although he has researched human potential and performance from a variety of perspectives, Steel’s primary focus has continued to be on the subject of procrastination. His research and discoveries were published in his bestselling book, The Procrastination Equation, and he has appeared in countless media outlets around the world, including Psychology Today, New Scientist, Good Housekeeping and The New Yorker. Presently, Steel is setting up a behavioural lab at the University of Calgary to conduct cutting-edge procrastination research and partnering with the Seaman Family Centre to carry out neurobiological studies on why people put off despite expecting to be worse off.
