Can neuroscientists build a better leader? In this webinar, Dr. Michael Platt, founder of the Wharton Neuroscience Initiative, shows us how.

Can neuroscientists build a better leader? In his new book, “The Leader’s Brain: Enhance Your Leadership, Build Stronger Teams, Make Better Decisions, and Inspire Greater Innovation with Neuroscience,” pioneering neuroscientist and Wharton Neuroscience Initiative founder Dr. Michael Platt presents evidence that they can. 

In this webinar, Platt will talk about the key findings from his book, condensing decades of research in neuroscience, psychology, and business into accessible, actionable insights that reveal what’s happening in your teams’ brains when they are working together, how to deliver a message in a way that ensures others hear you, how to encourage greater creativity and innovation, and the countless other ways in which individuals and organizations can leverage neuroscience to improve their performance. 

He will answer questions like:

• Why do two managers make different decisions when presented with the same information?
• Why do some brands build strong connections with their customers while others don’t?
• Why do even the most visionary business leaders make disastrous decisions?
