“Neuroscience for Leadership is a must-read for any leader, not just business leaders. The authors take the complicated world of brain function and emotions and map them to those critical decision moments all leaders face – making it clear that the inside factors are just as important, if not more so, as the outside ones!” –Glenn A. Youngkin, Co-President and Co-Chief Operating Officer, The Carlyle Group “Where science meets leadership, for aspiring leaders in the new and dynamic tech world. This fascinating book takes over where other ‘how to’ books leave off.” –Ned Spieker, Former Chairman, CEO, Spieker Properties NYSE (New York Stock Exchange); Chairman, Continuing Life “In absolute contrast with the typically lightweight fare found in books on leadership, Neuroscience for Leadership really educates, informs, and gives actionable advice. It’s not tediously academic nor riddled with airport bookstore clichés. Food for the mind. Highly recommended.” –Raymond van Niekerk, CMO, Investec “In all of the dozen or more businesses I have created, the towering issue has been enabling people to do simple things they find difficult to do. The neuroscience of this is the missing link in management training. The authors provide a hugely valuable insight.” –Brian Kingham, Chairman, Reliance Security Group Ltd. “The authors blend neuroscience, brain chemistry, psychology, and business to better understand what leaders do, why they do it, and most importantly how they can change to be more effective. The book is infinitely readable and pragmatic, with fun facts about the brain and practical steps to creating sustainable behavioral change. Covering topics from emotional intelligence to goal setting, values and purpose to selfconfidence, risk to inertia, this book is wide in reach and application.” –Deborah L Ancona, Seley Distinguished Professor of Management, Faculty Director of the MIT Leadership Center
