How to Incorporate Neuroscience into Your Coaching

In this masterclass, we will explore the ways in which recent neuroscience can enhance coaching. This will include areas such as how neuroscience helps us to understand why coaching can be so effective, how it can improve decision making and how it helps us better understand and respond more effectively in stressful situations. One further question that this raises, however, is how can coaches incorporate neuroscience understanding into a coaching conversation? We will also explore ways in which neuroscience information can be shared while maintaining the essential rapport of a coaching conversation.

Key takeaways from this Masterclass include:

• Understanding the neuroscience of the coaching process
• Improving decision making through greater understanding of the neuroscience
• More effective response to stress
• How to incorporate neuroscience when coaching
