A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO USING BRAIN SCIENCE TO INSPIRE SMARTER LEADERSHIP
Why do leaders experience the same problems again and again? Miscommunication, stress, resistance, conflict. In pressure moments, old habits re-emerge. The problem isn't you, it's your brain, because no one ever taught you how it really works. This book gives you the missing leadership manual, turning neuroscience into tools you can use immediately.

The Brain Instruction Manual for Leaders starts by explaining HOW the brain works, because it's only when you understand the context that the tools make sense, and then moves on to examine real-life, pressing leadership challenges through a brain-based lens.

You will discover some of the most common leadership FAQs and how they relate to the brain-based approach explained in the book.
