Managing with the Brain in Mind

Managing with the Brain in Mind

Comment from Jim: Neuroscience can teach us how to be better leaders if we understand what goes on in the unconscious minds of humans. If you are a current or emerging leader, this article is a "must-read". Learn about the "SCARF Model" which is supported by science.

Managing with the Brain in Mind
Neuroscience research is revealing the social nature of the high-performance workplace

Excerpts:

Perhaps the greatest challenge facing leaders of business or government is to create the kind of atmosphere that promotes status, certainty, autonomy, relatedness, and fairness. When historians look back, their judgment of this period in time may rise or fall on how organizations, and society as a whole, operated. Did they treat people fairly, draw people together to solve problems, promote entrepreneurship and autonomy, foster certainty wherever possible, and find ways to raise the perceived status of everyone? If so, the brains of the future will salute them.
