Neuroscience is creating a game-changing understanding of human behaviour. Through applied neuroscience there is a new basis for understanding why and how human beings can give of their best: and how leaders can be instrumental in making that best apparent.

Learning Objective

The aim is to increase participants' awareness of how the brain structures all information during the course of a working day and how that hinders or helps the way an organisation achieves its strategic and operational goals.

Topics Addressed:

Creating a working knowledge of the brain with opportunity to explore participants’ own management fascinations from a brain-based point of view.

Energy turned into profit
Relationships
The design of the future of HR
The probable decline of performance-based management in favour of self-regulated systems

Reading people and managing them well
The bases of trust

Who Can Join?

The seminar is designed for those who know the future of organisations is going to be different but want some underpinnings to their knowledge and thinking about how that will come about and how to steer it. The knowledge imparted could be of interest to anyone who cares about the long-term sustainability of the organisation they either create or of which they are a part and/or have responsibility for getting the best out of people. Suitable for Business Leaders, Senior Managers, L & D, HRD, Coaches and Organisational Consultants.
