Listen Later

Anna Byrne specialises in solving complex people problems and shaping mindset decisions and behaviours. She is a Partner at Neuro Power group and is a strategic advisor to boards and CEOs. Anna began her own board career at the age of 17 when she joined the United Nations Youth Association.

 

Anna has always been fascinated by how humans operate, and she brings a combination of neuroscience and behavioural economics to understand the deeper experiences that shape how we see the world.

 

Anna published a book called ‘Behavioural Economics for Business’ in 2016, and is currently working on another book called ‘Boardroom (R)evolution’, to be launched in 2018.

 

In the conversation, we discuss:

  • The characteristics of ‘complex systems’
  • Behavioural economics and Cognitive biases
  • Experimenting within a board career
  • The different filters through which we all see the world
  • How board members can get to know each other better
  • Ways to increase your ability to perform

And much more!
