Coaching with the Brain in Mind: Working with How the Brain Works to Create Positive Change
Speaker: Paul McGinniss
When: Monday, October 17, 2011, 5:30pm – 8:30pm
Where: Marriott Courtyard Marlborough, 75 Felton Street, Marlborough, MA 01752
As a natural follow-up to David Rock’s neuroscience presentation with ICFNE one year ago, Paul McGinniss will share a few simple and powerful coaching models based on current research from the fields of neuroscience and NeuroLeadership. Participants will be able to use their new knowledge immediately in their work and in their lives to facilitate positive change.
By understanding how the brain works, we can better tailor our coaching language, strategies, and goals to be in alignment with an individual’s “hard-wired” way of thinking. Recent and emerging findings from the fields of neuroscience and NeuroLeadership are explaining behavior from a brain-based perspective. Understanding and working with how the brain works, on a fundamental level, will allow leaders to decrease resistance, compliance, disengagement, and poor performance and increase insights, creativity, engagement, motivation, and positive change from their workforce.
Key Take Aways: In this session, participants will…
- Learn six fundamental brain findings
- Acquire a better understanding of basic brain functioning as it relates to relationships and performance
- Clarify how to leverage that understanding to improve relationships
- Consider a new Social/Communication Model
- Learn how to have brain-based coaching conversations to facilitate insights, engagement, and motivation
