Since the COVID-19 pandemic, providing leadership instruction often results in staff expressing psychological impacts. Teams are less connected, working in hybrid environments, and often entire teams are reluctant to return to a physical environment in favour of working independently and maintaining connection through online mechanisms. More leaders are stepping into leadership positions by virtue of their role or responsibilities, which has created a need to develop new skills and knowledge. This shift moves them beyond task-based approaches toward incorporating neuroscience into their leadership practice.

This has hastened the need to explore new communication methods, close generational differences and leverage cutting-edge neuroscience in leadership. By doing so, leaders can better understand how to optimise the workforce, communicate more effectively and lead teams with the brain in mind.

This book gives leaders, CEOs, managers and directors a comprehensive practical guide using the latest information about neurocare in leadership to evaluate their effectiveness through tools such as our evidence-based leadership capability framework.

This book explores topics that, when considered together, transform how leaders think about their effectiveness. This book explores the concepts required to be successful – enabling both employees to feel validated and leaders to uplift their capabilities while maintaining their well-being and mental health in leadership.
