The Performance Excellence Network is pleased to host an online webinar discussion on Thursday, October 29: “Why The Brain Follows: the Neuroscience of Leadership.” The discussion will be facilitated by Dr. Terry Wu of Neuromarketing Services.
COVID-19 has changed the landscape of leadership development: certain old ideas and methods don’t apply during such an unprecedented crisis, and some leadership skills based on personal experience and anecdotal evidence have become irrelevant. It is time to bring the science of decision-making to leadership. The "Neuroscience of Leadership" is about understanding how leaders decide to lead and why followers decide to follow. When guided by science, you, as a leader, can make better decisions that make you a smart, respected, successful leader.
In his talk, Terry will share which brain structures are involved in human emotions and decisions, helping you explore how emotions can influence your decisions unconsciously. You will discover why humans follow and trust the crowd, as well as the big difference between empathy and compassion.
During the session, we will explore answers to questions like these:
- What is the relationship between emotions and decisions?
- What are some of the blind spots in leaders’ decision making?
- How can leaders make people feel safe?
- Why leading with empathy can be counterproductive?
- Why does a “positive attitude” sometimes backfire?
The discussion will be a live Zoom Webinar Thursday, October 29 from 8:00-9:00 CT. Grab your coffee and breakfast, and join us for a rich discussion. Free for PEN members; $20 for non-members.
