The Superhumain Thinkers

 Leaders, What got you here, Won’t get you there

Get acquainted with our latest neuroleadership insights and strategies while moving up to become a SUPERHUMAIN™ Thinker.

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

A rapidly changing global environment has necessitated the development of a new wave of  Superhumain leaders who optimise their brain's potential.

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.

Episode Notes

According to a recent Gallup poll published in January 2021, just 34% of EU workers say they're engaged and while that's the highest in history, it's still shockingly low, just four percentage points higher than it was a decade ago. At SUPERHUMAIN, we have a vision of catapulting that number far higher, through our work.

In this weekly episode, we will focus on How to stay balanced at work and what role(s), leaders can drive to create a truly human organization?

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 some insights about large companies that, today, across the board, in a variety of industries, are thinking about ways that they can invigorate their growth, and they turn to innovation, especially during this pandemic period. But the reason I am doing this episode — what I found from my research and my and my consulting activities — is that a lot of larger companies struggled to get started.

Many of the world’s most successful business people will tell you that the difference between success and failure in business comes down to your staff. True… To increase the odds of success, companies should encourage the neurodiversity as one their strategic action.

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.
