Neuroscience for Leadership with Dr Tara Swart

What makes a good leader really great?

As a leader, do you understand how your brain affects interactions with all of your stakeholders?

• Learn how leaders influence our prefrontal cortex and how this significantly influences behaviour in others
• Develop empathy - the soft skill that produces hard results versus that easily detected insincere manipulation
• Harness the instinctive desire for co-operation that is deeply embedded in all of our minds
• Master essential techniques to avoid transmission of your personal threat states - ones that subconsciously destabilise your organisational culture
• Encourage curiosity to achieve frequent moments of surprise and delight
• Determine the change you require by applying a deliberate framework to adapt and acquire the capability for really great results
• Understand that accountability, focus and practice are three essentials for neuroscientific and business success

Dr Tara Swart is at the forefront of the application of neuroscience to business. She has a unique skill set with a PhD in neuroscience and a successful career as a medical doctor and psychiatrist. This combination of experience and knowledge comes together to create an uncompromising and holistic impact on business and leadership performance.
