Rewiring the Organizational Brain: How to Be a Smarter Leader

Imagine your organization as one giant brain. One that's not thinking properly. Businesses today are mired in conventional thinking, says Michael Vaughan, chief executive officer and managing director of The Regis Company. He's the author of The Thinking Effect: Rethinking Thinking to Create Great Leaders and the New Value Worker. In this episode, Vaughan joins us to talk about how the concept of ''neural leadership'' can break organizations of old mental habits, such as fear and unconscious bias. As we come to understand the human brain – and our knowledge of that organ is far from complete – we also achieve a better idea of how people can work together to create a new generation of smarter leaders.
