Neuroscientist, Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Author, Friederike Fabritius on her NEW book ”The Brain-Friendly Workplace: Why Talented People Quit and How to Make Them Stay”

Season 8 Episode 258

"The old corporate paradigm of extreme hours, little sleep, endless meetings, and nonstop travel is dead. No one wants to go back to that. It's bad for performance and for everyone's mental and physical health. The future of business is hybrid and requires a flexible new paradigm that helps everyone reach peak performance: the brain-friendly workplace." (Friederike Fabritius)

✔ What is causing the "Neuro-Gap" and why is it important to have different brain-types represented at the higher levels of corporations or organizations.

✔ How can someone with ambition and persistence, move forward into a management position? What should they be prepared to show if their brain-type isn't often represented in these higher level positions?

✔ What is lateral or creative thinking, versus linear thinking, and why are both important in the workplace?

✔ Where do those "flashes of insight" come from, that creative people can see? Can science prove this type of thinking to be useful?

✔ What are the 4 brain types, or neurosignatures, and how can we be sure we understand them for ourselves, and for others?
