Phil Barton's Journey into Behavioral Science
Phil Barton's introduction to behavioral science stemmed from a moment of panic during his tenure as VP for T-Mobile in Europe. Facing a confusing and costly research project aimed at repositioning the brand across 12 countries, he turned to Decode, an agency staffed by a neuroscientist and a cognitive psychologist. Their adeptness in translating complex scientific insights into relatable terms and practical applications opened his eyes to the wealth of behavioral knowledge available outside of the corporate world. This transformative experience led Barton to scrap his initial plans and embrace behavioral science principles, eventually guiding him to establish a UK office for Decode and to become a strong proponent of these methodologies in marketing.
