Brain-Hacks for Leaders

Unprecedented change, ambiguity and threats in the current landscape are causing concern, fear and stress, all of which are natural and normal reactions to the current context that everyone is finding themselves in. In turn, this is putting the resilience and robustness of leaders to the test, as they decide how best to manage and react to the situation unfolding before them.

This 2-hour virtual workshop provides an opportunity for you to take time out to reflect on your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and strengths at this challenging time. You will explore natural human responses to stress and pressure, and the implications for yourself and your role as a leader. You will learn and share brain based practical tools and solutions to hack your brain, increasing your resilience and maintaining your well-being such that you are able to better respond and react effectively. The workshop will help you to cultivate your inner strength as leaders, helping you feel more confident, adaptable and open to new opportunities in these volatile times.

By the end of the session you will have:

Developed your understanding of why and how the brain works the way it does

Practiced practical strategies to hack your brain
Explored the evidence on maintaining well-being and applied these to your own situation
Reviewed your strengths and considered how you can use them to keep your batteries charged
