Johannes Siebert habilitated in Behavioral OR, and Decision Making at the University of Bayreuth, Germany, and teaches Decision Sciences and Behavioral Economics at MCI | THE ENTREPREUNRIAL SCHOOL®, Innsbruck, Austria. He has published papers in leading international journals such as Operations Research (A+) and the European Journal of Operational Research (A). He is Member of the Executive Committee of the International Society on MCDM, Member of the Coordinating Board of the European Working Group of Behavioral Operations Research, and on the Editorial Board of the INFORMS journal Decision Analysis. In addition, he serves in the Advisory Council of the Alliance for Decision Education with leading researchers such as Daniel Kahneman and Richard Thaler to promote decision education for adolescents worldwide. Johannes's research objective is to contribute to better-informed decision making and thereby make better decisions for individuals and organizations. Together with Ralph Keeney, he extends the concept of classical nudging by empowering individuals to become their own decision architects. In a TEDxTalk ("Nudge yourself to make better decisions"), he presented the core ideas to a broader audience successfully. He also consulted public and private organizations in the US and Europe on research-oriented projects. Three times, he was acknowledged as a finalist in the practice award of the Decision Analysis Society (INFORMS). Email: Johannes.Siebert@mci.edu.
