Episode Notes
Among the many dramatic and concerning ways the COVID-19
pandemic has transformed our society and systems, impacted our health and
uprooted our lives, it has spawned a complicated set of unprecedented
challenges for working parents and families.
Supporting employee health and well-being and fostering an atmosphere that supports
productivity by promoting employee resiliency and a healthy corporate culture
was a priority for Dr. Anju Jain, before the pandemic—a mandate that has now
become more needed and relevant than ever.
Today, I'm so glad to welcome Dr. Anju Jain in this episode, who recently joins Fermilab as Global CHRO to talk about: Why Burnout should not be the price for Success ?
In addition, she is a published author, two interesting books that I have recently read:

Episode Notes
The primary purpose of your brain] is to keep you alive. [Once you appreciate that
reality, you can leverage more of the science on] how you and others can lead
better.
One of the conversations that we often have on the show is, how do we lead more effectively, how do we change our behavior, how do we frame a different reality and so much of that while we do think about our brains and the biology behind what we do and the science behind what we do.
Today, I'm so glad to welcome one of the top experts on brain science - Dr. Michael Platt renowned Wharton professor and world class neuroscience expert - that will help us to leverage our knowledge to the next level, how we can lead better and especially,
why do the best leaders lead with the brain in mind.

Episode Notes
If you want to increase equality, diversity and inclusion within your workforces, you may have heard of what is increasingly being seen as a crucial reason why diverse groups of people have different lived professional experiences: unconscious bias in the workplace.
For this episode, I am delighted to welcome, Lorraine Madur, PhD Neuroscience Researcher for University of Zurich who has explored the roots and ramifications of unconscious bias, from the level of the neuron to that of workplace.
In our conversation, Lorraine and I discuss:
· What is Unconscious Bias in the Workplace, and how does it
impact our decision making during all the stages of talent lifecycle?
· As well, she offers leaders strategies to reduce unconscious bias
impact in their workplace.
This episode is a must listen for anyone interested in or involved in the role of creating a more diverse and inclusive culture in their organization. So that is Business Leaders, Chief HR Officers and anyone in a Strategy, People Analytics, Culture, Employee Experience or HR Business Partner role.

Procrastination is much more complicated than we see it. It can be a result of stress, overworking, burnout, reduced motivation, or simply bad time management. What we can all agree is that is definitely a bad habit that harms our productivity and affects the way we feel every day.

Episode Notes
As many C-suite Leaders we interact with: you may go to the gym to train your muscles. You run outside or go for hikes to train your endurance. Or, maybe you do neither of those, but still wish you exercised more. We spend so much time focusing on improving our body; shouldn’t you also focus on learning how to train your brain to think better ?
We all have our favorite mental models, the ones we naturally default to as an explanation for how or why something happened. As you grow older and develop expertise in a certain area, you tend to favor the mental models that are most familiar to you.
Here's the problem: when a certain worldview dominates your thinking, you’ll try to explain every problem you face through that worldview. This pitfall is particularly easy to slip into when you're smart or talented in a given area.
As the common proverb says, “If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
In this weekly episode, we will share some of the best ways to do this is to expand the set of mental models you use to think. As well, I will share with you some tools that I am using for thinking better.

Burnout can strike at unexpected moments, regardless of whether you’re your own boss or work with a team.

Creativity is fragile - Despite all our care, sometimes, it seems to be gone: we experience the dreaded creative burnout.
As designer Frank Chimero writes: “Fatigue happens to your body, but burnout exhausts your soul.”
In this weekly episode, we will focus on How to Know that You are in an Innovative Slump and share some isnights on how to bounce back when your creativity taps has run dry.

Episode Notes
The prevailing attitude in the workplace can create the conditions needed for innovative growth, or it can lead to a toxic environment where new ideas are unwelcome. The willingness to embrace doing things in a new way and adopting a positive mindset in regards to experimentation are both crucial for a positive attitude in today’s business world.
Leaders are expected to be problem solvers, but no one leader can do everything alone. Effective leaders must inspire others to want to solve these problems, and they should encourage employees to also think outside the box. A leadership style that is harsh, constantly negative and rigid is not conducive to collaboration and instead will likely lead employees to pursue other avenues of employment. Leaders should assess themselves first--are you behaving in a manner that will positively impact those around you?
In this weekly episode, we will focus on how can SUPERHUMɅIN™ Leaders tap into the power of positive thinking?

Episode Notes
Even when faced with a life-threatening situation, we tend to resist change despite knowing the repercussions. We see this every day in organisations experiencing change. MIT University found that over 70% of change initiatives fail because of people resistance – not because they weren’t good business ideas, driven by sound analysis, systems and facts.
The core of the challenge is changing behaviour—and our brains are extremely effective in tenaciously maintaining the status quo.
At the same time we wouldn’t be human if we couldn’t change. Human society is one of constant change and reinvention. Understanding the neuroscience of change and how the brain works during change can help you manage change resistance and develop strategies to maximise our brain’s capacity for neuroplasticity.
In this weekly episode, we will focus on how can we leverage our brain’s capacity to approach change and reshape habits that no longer serve us and adopt new, more desirable attitudes and behaviours?

Episode Notes
2020 has been a year like no other. In May and June of last year, we have surveyed (with support of Neuroleadership Institute) 688 people from organizations in different industries, different locations, and of different sizes about performance. About half of respondents reported having at least some difficulty focusing on routine tasks. It’s no surprise that when half your employees struggle to focus, an entire organization’s performance suffers.
So we’ve come to the conclusion that these trying times demand that we modify, if not completely rethink, our approach to performance management. Luckily, we have the brain science to show us how to do it.
Here, we’ll dig deeper into ways SUPERHUMAIN Leaders can apply our research to performance management in this new reality, namely by having more, and better, conversations.
In this weekly episode, we will focus on how can an organization facilitate a flow of quality feedback, build resilience and engage their teams ? In a phrase, growth mindset is a key ingredient in the performance management process.

It turns out the old adage “Employees don’t leave companies, they leave bad managers” is no longer entirely accurate. Though managers still play a major role in employee retention, they may not be the biggest factor in ensuring talented employees stick around. Our recent study reveals that creating a strong employee experience is the key to attracting and keeping employees in today’s job market. What does that mean?
In this weekly episode, we will focus on how to build stronger Employee Experiences that will enhance their connection to your core values?

Episode Notes
Today’s business environment is best described as VUCA – Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. VUCA is, quite simply, the expression of the fact that the rate of change is outpacing our ability to adapt.
As a result of this, businesses, industries and careers are disrupted faster than ever before. Leaders have to seriously rethink about how they lead themselves, others and their organisations. Old ways of leadership have to give way to newer mental models based on agility in decision making, critical thinking, adaptable learning, people orientation and responsiveness to change.
Whilst none of us is really in control of our environment, most of us are working hard to anticipate the changing conditions of our business.
In this weekly episode, we will focus on How can leaders build resilience and improve decision-making given the increase in unexpected disruptions ?

Episode Notes
In this weekly's episode, I am sharing some insights about the performance management process that you are going to engage with your team members.
Underlying this process is the belief that by reflecting on people’s performance and codifying it in an evaluation form, we will be able to assess their merits objectively, give out rewards fairly, and offer useful feedback to help them develop in the next year. But while we may strive to be as meritocratic as possible, our assessments are imperfect and all too often biased. In this episode, you will find some tips on how to mitigate it within your evaluation.

Episode Notes
In this weekly's episode, I am sharing the effective ways on how to Empower your Brain’s resiliency.
Resilience is a crucial characteristic of high- performing leaders. Leaders must cultivate it in themselves in order to advance and thrive.They also carry the responsibility for helping to protect the energy of the people in their teams.
"A brain that’s not resilient, is a failure of plasticity" - Eric Nestler, PHD Brain researcher.
Again, resilience is not a trait that you either have or don’t have. It’s a skill that can be learned. You can develop resiliency by intentionally changing your thoughts and behaviors.
Over time, through the process of neuroplasticity, your physical brain can change to reinforce the skill.

Episode Notes
In this weekly's episode, I am sharing the effective ways on how to change leadership habits and/our behavioural patterns. Before your start listening and piling more new learning onto your existing learning you need to decide what you need to get rid of!
Unlearning is a real challenge; much of what we have learned we have done so unconsciously and we are usually unaware of the mental models and behavioural patterns that we have created for ourselves. They are our lifeblood; our default mode of functioning and we are often not even aware that they exist.
« We first make our habits then our habits make us » - John Dryden
Sometimes, we may be aware that our existing models’ and patterns are becoming outdated, but, as we have built our reputation and our success on them, letting go can seem like starting afresh and losing our sense of who we are.
Unlearning is never easy, but that doesn't mean the effort isn't worth it to try.

Episode Notes
Almost all of us are doing more virtually than we ever have done before - and that includes our leadership responsabilities. Virtual leadership has become the norm in many organizations and Leaders have had to adapt in order to influence effectively across distance.
Sometimes out of sight means out of mind. Perception of communication will be less than you think. Figure out how to make space for different kinds of styles and personalities within your team is critical.
In this week's episode, I am sharing what strategies neuroleaders can use to be as effective as possible in a virtual environment.

Episode Notes
In the current hyper-competitive landscape, it is important to understand how you, as a leader and/or an organization gain competitive advantage in the now, the new and the unknown.
You may ask yourself, these two most powerful questions:
What am I not seeing? and
What else might be true?
The challenge is the more obvious. When competitive advantage in business is so hard fought for – for the corporate entity within its markets, and the individual in their ambitions to progress their career – any positive differentiator is important.
Neuroleadership is the potential differentiator. This is not a hype/ snake oil salesman pitch. The name neuroleadership may provoke a reaction because of the associations people make and questions it raises in their minds. However, fundamentally neuro-leadership is just a deeper level of leadership. It takes into account our latest understanding of the human mind and how it works that we are sharing in this episode.
