Companies everywhere are searching for ways to improve employee performance. Many view employee ratings and bonuses as the solution, but they aren’t the answer. Perhaps the problem is that we’re not tackling the issue where it’s hardest: improving the quality of managerial conversations.

This webcast will be a deep dive into the latest neuroscience research around “connecting better.” It will highlight insights from nearly two decades of research around quality performance conversations, including how to:

  • Minimize threat in the brain during difficult conversations.
  • Refocus conversations to promote a growth mindset.
  • Facilitate insight, motivate action, and develop sustainable new habits in others.

This event will be live only on June 29, 2016, with no archived recording available.
