TUNE IN TO LEARN:

  • Neurodiversity, neurosignature - what we truly miss at our workplaces to solve problems and make progress faster and to increase productivity with more insightful, prolific work; 
  • Where companies fall short of diversity at work; 
  • “Let’s make every brain shine!” - creating a brain-friendly workplace for ANY brain type; 
  • 4 systems that shape our different brains, and the different ways we do things, approach work and solve problems; 
  • Don’t look for like-minded people for your high-performing team - it might be the mistake that keeps your company and your vision stuck in the same patterns; 
  • Every team should have people who love different tasks and hate different tasks - looking for well-rounded people who are kind of good at everything isn’t the best way to build your super-star team; 
  • A high-performing team doesn’t think as one, they create unexpected combinations of ideas - how to avoid “group think” and get into “group flow” to come up with the most novel and effective solutions; 
  • A hack to better group brainstorming to come up with truly novel solutions VS repeating the same ones collectively; 
  • “The best solution is never in one, anyone’s head” - how to tap into collective genius for the best possible solutions, coming from true diversity of thinking; 
  • “Neurogap” - what it is and how it creates workplaces that allow only certain brains to thrive and only certain talents to shine; 
  • How cultivating outcome culture VS hustle culture will help to accommodate for different brains, different neurosignatures, extroverts and introverts for them to thrive, raising dramatically productivity levels; 
  • Stress can be a performance amplifier, but different stress levels work for different brains; 
  • “Your performance isn’t linked to how many hours you show up” - helping your people to craft their perfect job experience; 
  • Simplifying flow state, the most productive and effective brain state - finding a perfect mix of fun, fear and focus for different neurosignatures; 
  • How to find your personal perfect mix of fun, fear and focus to get into flow often and consistently; 
  • “The brain and the body are connected. When you take care of your body - you are take care of your brain. When you boost your body - you boost your brain”; 
  • Your daily simple checklist to boost the brain through the body, and what can be done to nudge the desired behaviors at any workplace; 
  • The power of chocolate for the brain performance and why it’s in the book on brain’s friendly workplace; 
  • Taking care of your brain is about living at a higher level - better performance, finding your passion and living your life well and meaningfully. TUNE IN - YOUR BRAIN WILL LOVE IT!
