About

Philip Zimbardo is a renowned psychologist and professor emeritus at Stanford University. He is known for his pioneering research on the Lucifer Effect, which explores how good people can be transformed into perpetrators of evil.

Zimbardo's landmark 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment demonstrated the power of situational forces to corrupt human behavior. He has authored numerous influential books, including the New York Times bestseller The Lucifer Effect.

Zimbardo's engaging keynotes draw on decades of cutting-edge psychology to reveal how individuals and organizations can cultivate greater compassion, courage and ethical decision-making.
