Recommendation

Many books and articles apply recent advances in neuroscience to daily life, business and leadership. This addition to that collection is fortunately more useful and down to earth than most. Leadership and management specialists Tara Swart, Kitty Chisholm and Paul Brown express complex ideas in a welcome, readable voice. They waste little time proselytizing for the soundness of their ideas or claiming to unveil a major paradigm shift. Instead, they revel in offering a clear, pragmatic guide to applying concepts from neuroscience to life and leadership. Their advice is fundamental and easily applicable. Don’t let the title daunt you – the authors aggregate and explain a lot of useful wisdom, capably translating science for a lay audience. getAbstract recommends their eye-opening conclusions to everyone interested in neuroscience, self-improvement or leadership.

Take-Aways

  • Leaders can apply neuroscience to improve their organizations.
  • Leaders help their organizations act, perceive and perform.
  • The endocrine system and neurochemistry shape a person’s behavior.
