About the Yaffe Center:
The Yaffe Center, founded at the University of Michigan’s Ross School
of Business by advertising agency founder Fred Yaffe, is dedicated to
the research, teaching, and discussion of persuasive communication.
We see rapid changes in how communications are delivered and how
consumers process them. Emerging digital media play a larger role,
and messages today are increasingly visual and nonlinear. And
persuasion frequently cuts across disciplines and requires study
without silos.
Therefore, the Center is focusing on three major areas this year:
* The effectiveness of new media.
* The study of style and design as persuasive tools.
* Interdisciplinary examples of successful persuasion.
