Ep 109: The Neuroscience of Leadership: Create Belonging, Fuel Performance, Multiply Impact
Manage episode 500506626 series 3667596
In this episode, we explore how neuroscience reveals what truly makes leaders effective – from how they regulate themselves, lead by example, and the various ways they can influence others and shape a team’s culture. You’ll learn how emotional safety, trust, and meaning aren’t just soft skills but are actually brain-based performance drivers.
- Discover how a leader’s role modeling combined with mirror neurons influence your team's mood, energy, and behavior
- Understand why brains in “threat mode” shut down trust, learning, and creativity and why psychological safety is the #1 predictor of high-performing teams
- Learn how to move from individual contributor to team multiplier
- Hear why storytelling activates more of the brain than data – and how to use that as a leader
- Explore how trust, purpose, and vulnerability unlock team engagement
Leadership isn’t about control, it’s about connection of people with each other and with a sense of shared purpose. And when you lead with safety, clarity, and purpose, you do far more than just manage a team – you multiply its impact.
