Change Your Brain, Change Your Business

 

Adrienne Fox senior editor at HR Magazine showed how human resourse specialists are turning knowledge about the brain at work – into practical use that improves an ordinary workday. It's changing horizons at work - and well worth a look!

David Rock, CEO at Results Coaching Systems, shows why change is so difficult ... and why it takes so much effort.

Boyden helps engineers to problem-solve with the brain in mind and his engineering approaches offer insights into the human condition at any workplace.

Pierce Howard who directs the Center for Applied Cognitive Studies in Charlotte, NC shows how stress at work will diminish employees’ mental capabilities. Howard speaks of creating opportune settings for workers and placing people in positions that capitalize on their abilities. Are you in a position that supports your abilities? Is so … you are likely highly successful at whatever you do. If not … why not consider a few cutting edge practices that will change your brain and change your business.
