Textul de pe ultima copertă

" If you re interested in the hot topic of how neuroscience can make you a better leader, this is the book to read. Pillay offers solidly researched, practical insights into the many ways brain science can be used on the job: to improve relationships, negotiations, change management, and more. I found the advice for coaches particularly enlightening. Leaders at all levels and in all types of organizations will find this book a tremendously helpful resource. " --Jocelyn R. Davis, EVP, Research and Development, The Forum Corporation, and coauthor of "Strategic Speed: Mobilize People, Accelerate Execution" "" " Pillay has a unique ability to link the science of how our brains work to very practical implications for leadership. The implications and applications go far beyond the business world and provide insights for better managing relationships in all spheres of our lives from an inside out perspective, giving us a scientific basis for the value of introspection. " --Subhanu Saxena, member, Global Pharmaceutical Executive Committee, Novartis Pharma AG " This is an extraordinarily practical tool for coaches, and those going through coaching assignments, to understand how the brain can play a role in how you work with people and create a context for meaningful and sustainable change. As we learn from Dr. Pillay s book, leadership effectiveness is influenced by the functioning of the brain and the translation of intangibles such as trust, fairness, and openness in everyday interactions with people and organizations. Neuroscience has provided additional tools to understand the scientific basis upon which great leaders build effective and high-performing teams and businesses.
