The topic was The Neuroscience of Leadership (NeuroLeadership TREAD), and it was informative, entertaining and rich with practical strategies to lift engagement, improve decisionmaking and stress regulation, and develop and coach others. Kristen’s style was engaging, humorous and influential, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
