Course Description

Are you a manager or entrepreneur who has to lead a team? Keep reading, this should interest you.

Do you wonder how to bring your people to the next level? What is that famous next level anyway? And where can you find the manual...?

Well... you just found it!

This course has the ambition to build a bridge between neuroscience and managers. A bridge between how our brain works and how to use that knowledge to improve our communication and leadership abilities.

So expect some theory, of course, about the 4 different brain structures that are responsible for how we act and react to things. But most of all, expect concrete, real life examples, homework where you'll put this knowledge into practice, and exercises about how we can manage our brain (oh yes, there’s all kind of pretty cool stuff inside). Best of all, learn communication techniques to effectively manage your team members, connect them to their intrinsic motivation, their prefrontal adaptation skills, and make a difference. Leadership is not a given. It's something you (l)earn.


note: If you have already followed Master Your Brain, here on Ulearning, be aware that this course covers the same approach and techniques. The main difference is about how to put them into practice in a business environment

Neurocognitive and Behavioral Expert

Gregory Caremans

Besides my lifelong passion for human behavior and personal development, I've worked the last 15 years in training and development, and was trained into the Neurocognitive and Behavioral Approach A lot of people who follow my blog or enroll in my courses are quite curious about this NBA-thing, theNeurocognitive and Behavioral Approach. When you google it, you hardly find information on it. The reason for this is simple: The NBA has its origins in France, and is called ANC, l'approche Neurocognitive et Comportementale. Now when you google that, you'll find loads of information, unfortunately, the vast majority of it is in french… So that's where I come in. I have been the Director of the Institute of Neurocognitivism, which task is to spread the NBA, for several years. I worked directly with the founders of the NBA, Dr. Jacques Fradin and his colleagues, and became an expert in his approach. in 2014 I created Human Dimension and took the decision to take the NBA one step further by elevating it's reach from a regional scope to a worldwide reach, by translating the work of Jacques Fradin into English, and make it accessible to everyone. With my team, we decided to translate the NBA into every day, real life applications: How to use the NBA to raise children, to become a better manager, to deal with stress, and so on… We've added new perspectives and insights from brilliant minds such as Daniel Kahneman, David Brooks, Dan Ariely, Antonio Damasio, Steven Pinker, and many more Understanding how our brains work and their impact on our behavior has a major impact on how we see ourselves and others. It helps us be at peace with ourselves and be more tolerant towards others. In other words: it makes the world a better place to live in. So join us in this brain-revolution.
