The field of neuroscience assists individuals and organisations to fulfil their potential through gaining a better understanding of how the human brain functions at the level of individual, team and workplace systems.
Neuroscience is the study of how the nervous system and brain function, and the latest advances in the field help to unravel the physiology of individual, group and leadership effectiveness.
We apply the principles of neuroscience in:
- management and leadership development
- employee engagement
- change management
- behaviour and safety patterns
- mindfulness – awareness, attention, focus and presence.
In recent years the notion of mindfulness has become increasingly popular as a growing body of research indicates that mindfulness provides a number of physical, psychological, and even performance benefits in the workplace.
