Description

The human brain doesn't play well with others. Learn to overcome its weaknesses and take advantage of its strengths.This course: Leadership Skills: Business Decision-Making, Problem-SolvingAfter taking this course:You will be able to solve problems, make better decisions and resolve conflicts using all or some of the five-step Harnessing the Speed of Thought (HST) model.This neuroscience-based course (no science background needed) will enable you to:Know how your and everyone's brain makes critical errors and how to avoid themHarness the speed of your thoughts and those of othersEnable groups to work together and combine their brain powerUse the model in almost every aspect of business & daily life.Decisions will be logical and correct. Problems will become opportunities. Conflicts will become win-win. You will learn to overcome your brain's natural tendency to race to the easiest (not best) solution. Harnessing the Speed of Thought focuses collective brain power to enable groups to work together better than ever before.Ensure people focus on the same thing at the right time in the right way. Assemble solutions rather than debate them. Taking this course will enable you to effectively solve complex problems, make optimal decisions and resolve seemingly impossible conflicts.One of my clients saved his company two million dollars a year at the cost of $1 (he paid for my coffee at Starbucks). Step into a thousand situations and know exactly what to do. You will increase happiness, contentment, productivity and success for you and those around you.What makes this course different? Trained in human behavior, I help business leaders and employees interact with each other and with customers in the most productive ways. This course combines a concept from neuroscience (Type-2 Thinking) with one from psychology (Parallel Thinking). People work together to assemble a solution rather than debating different points of view.I created HST soon after completing my doctoral dissertation in 1973. The model was first used with doctors to help patients better understand and follow their treatment plans. It has evolved over the years to become a universal decision-making and problem-solving tool. It is a tool you should have in your arsenal and is available online only in my courses.Rock Solid Business Soft SkillsMy set of LEADERSHIP SKILLS courses is ideal if you want to significantly improve your soft skills as a leader, manager or employee. Each course presents a specific topic; you'll dive deeply into the content and emerge with newly acquired ideas and rock-solid soft skills. Many of the ideas and skills are unique to this set of courses.Business is a balancing act of controlling and enabling others. As a leader/manager, you must be in charge, but also encourage the best from every worker. As you know, this isn't easy. Make a mistake or two and everyone suffers. Rock solid skills have clear steps, easily followed and measured. And if you aspire to leadership, these skills will propel you upward.My courses follow that old saying, "if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, if you teach him to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." I teach both skills and concepts. If you want both training and an education, this is the place, tools and ideas. Each course provides ideas to explore and skills to try out. You choose the topic and in about three hours or less, you'll acquire rock solid soft skills enabling you to support and inspire your employees.
