Brain-Friendly Leadership and Growth Mindset

Brain-Friendly Leadership and Growth Mindset

This workshop explores the difference between fixed mindset and growth mindset from both a personal and organizational level. We’ll also look at how neuroplasticity (our brain’s ability to grow new neural pathways) can be used to embrace a growth mindset and develop new skills to become better leaders, change the way we think about challenges, and *literally* rewire our brains for the better.

Learning Objectives

1. Develop and embrace brain-healthy leadership skills
2. Build a mindset for intrapersonal growth and resiliency
3. Learn powerful yet simple exercises to enhance your brain’s neuroplasticity
4. How to build a growth mindset within your organization that drives engagement and empowers innovation

Cost: Free for SLA Members. $80 non-member. $60 nonprofits.
