Brain and Behaviour in Organisations
An eight part program on a new approach to managing people
Our initial program is from applied neuroscientist, Prof Paul Brown, on Brain and Behaviour on Organisations, and explores how our increasingly sophisticated understanding of the brain and the role of emotions affects how we relate to others and impacts our, and our organisation’s, performance. It introduces the concepts of the bottom-up brain, the London Protocol of Emotions, the significance of the Yerkes-Dodson Law and the five qualities of the Limbic Leader - in a structured and accessible way.

Featured Courses

The Psychology of Resistance to Change
Change can be challenging for people who have seen change fail in the past. In this course, learn from current academic research how to identify the psychological precedents that help people accept change and how to help people reframe past experience so they’re more accepting of change initiatives.


Develop Empathy and Gain Influence By Listening
Listening is one of the most underrated business communication skills. While most of us like to share our knowledge, you can gain more influence and develop deeper connections with your co-workers by practicing active listening. Research from Columbia Business School finds a direct connection between listening and one’s ability to influence others. Good listening skills are related to the ability to persuade others, direct meetings, and turn conversations in your favor.


Lead with Sepf-Deprecating Humour
Ever had a boss who you thought was funny? You know, the sort of person who would crack a joke about themselves in the right setting to put everyone at ease? Joking about yourself in the right tone is self-deprecating and is used to lower status differences and build trust.


Creating Effective Social Media Posts
Companies and organizations use digital marketing to increase brand awareness, promote their products and services, and build an audience (or an online following). Engagement is key, and that’s why social media is such an important part of the marketing mix. If you want your social media marketing strategies to succeed, this training will show you how to engineer the content of your posts to increase customer engagement and that means more likes, shares, comments, and click-throughs.
