The most dangerous sound in any organization is silence. And yet, for many of us, speaking up is one of the hardest things to do at work. In this week’s episode, Assistant Professor of Management and Diversity at the Free University of Berlin Dr. Mona Weiss discusses her research around “employee voice.” She explains why personality alone can’t explain why some people keep quiet and why others make themselves heard, and offers research-backed tips to get everyone more engaged.

In organizations around the world, leaders are facing a deluge of urgent issues: a crisis in employee engagement, the need to make workforces more diverse, and the challenge of making workplaces feel human in an era of increasing dependence on technology and remote communication.
At the NeuroLeadership Institute, we believe brain science can help provide solutions. Join us on Your Brain At Work, the official podcast of the NeuroLeadership Institute — where top researchers and thought leaders share breakthroughs in brain science and industry leaders reveal the strategies behind their success.

By helping them understand how the brain works, we equip leaders with the tools to transform their organizations — building new habits and changing how people work, communicate, and make decisions. Combining research and practice, brain science and business leadership, Your Brain at Work explores how insights from the lab can provide solutions that work across industries and at any scale.

Season 1 guests include broadcast journalist Soledad O’Brien; Dean Carter, Director of Human Resources, Finance, Legal, Shared Services at Patagonia; Deb Bubb, Vice President of Learning and Inclusion at IBM; and FD Wilder, Senior Vice President of Go-To-Market Strategy and Innovation at Procter & Gamble.

On this episode of Your Brain at Work,  Dr. Emma Sarro and Dr. David Rock explore the science behind the best training models in the world. Listen in to unpack why and how organizations must revolutionize how leaders learn if they want to keep up with the pace of change. *** Learn more about the upcoming NeuroLeadership Summit: https://summit.neuroleadership.com/ Learn more about our groundbreaking new leadership development program — LEAD: The Neuroscience of Effective Management — here: https://neuroleadership.com/LEAD Keep up-to-date on the latest NLI content at our blog: https://neuroleadership.com/your-brain-at-work/ Join us for upcoming events: https://neuroleadership.com/our-events/ Host a NeuroLeadership Event in your city: https://hub.neuroleadership.com/events/na-host-a-nli-event-2024 Explore our solutions: https://neuroleadership.com/solutions-for-organizations/

Case Study: AI and a New Kind of Leader with DBS

Join our Co-founder and CEO, Dr. David Rock, and Probir Das, Group Executive Officer at Terumo APAC, to be inspired by the journey of this global leader in medical devices. Terumo has been in operation for over 100 years and in 2022, embarked on a global journey in partnership with the NeuroLeadership Institute (NLI) to activate the power of an organisation-wide growth mindset.


Probir Das has been a strong advocate of the initiative and strongly believes it helped him personally and professionally. Within the Asia-Pacific region, Probir took it a step further: he has operationalised the NLI game-changing Growth Mindset framework by creating a 'Seed fund' dedicated to experimentation, and he constantly encourages the team to innovate.

Learn how Terumo has developed 400 prototypes so far since the implementation of NLI's GROW. They have also adopted a 'Mistakes Learned Award' and 'Peer learning teams' to constantly value progress, which includes both failures and wins.
