                                       Internal auditors are only as successful as their ability to influence the behavior
                                       of others.  This session will look at ways human behavior is influenced and how
                                       we can use these concepts to become more influential on campus.

                                       This session will demonstrate the trappings of cognitive bias.  In this interactive

                                       authentic psychic, only to reveal that it was a hoax to expose predilections. He
                                       has subsequently become one of the words foremost experts on deception,
                                       skepticism, and cognitive bias.  Banachek is respected as the greatest
                                       Mentalist/Mindreader in the world.
