Brainpower at work – Tips on building a brain-friendly workplace
Ever wondered how to get the best out of our brains at work? This book shows you how.
Brainpower at work is a practical toolkit to dip into. It’s all about enabling people to perform at their best by exploring what helps people to focus and thrive. It is based on the belief that if leaders, managers – all of us – understand our brains a little better, then we can work with that knowledge and have more great hours at work. It provides practical suggestions as to what we can do to get our own brains and others’ ‘back on track’ and performing at their best, whether in the workplace or beyond. The good news is that small actions can make big differences to our brains.
Got a difficult conversation coming up? Want to feel less frazzled? Managing teams that are geographically-dispersed? Leading people through change? These, and many other topics are covered. Each short section provides a bit of research and evidence from the worlds of neuroscience, behavioural science and psychology, and then suggests lots of practical tips.
You do not need to read the book cover to cover (unless you really want to). For those who want a quick reference guide, all the relevant information is in each section. For those who want to delve deeper and understand more about the science, the academic references are included.
