E01419. Neuroscience for Leadership Harnessing the Brain Praise for Neuroscience for Leadership “Neuroscience for Leadership is a must-read for any leader, not just business leaders. The authors take the complicated world of brain function and emotions and map them to those critical decision moments all leaders face – making it clear that the inside factors are just as important, if not more so, as the outside ones!” –Glenn A. Youngkin, Co-President and Co-Chief Operating Offi cer, The Carlyle Group “Where science meets leadership, for aspiring leaders in the new and dynamic tech world. This fascinating book takes over where other ‘how to’ books leave off .” –Ned Spieker, Former Chairman, CEO, Spieker Properties NYSE (New York Stock Exchange); Chairman, Continuing Life “In absolute contrast with the typically lightweight fare found in books on leadership, Neuroscience for Leadership really educates, informs, and gives actionable advice. It’s not tediously academic nor riddled with airport bookstore clichés. Food for the mind. Highly recommended.” –Raymond van Niekerk, CMO, Investec “In all of the dozen or more businesses I have created, the towering issue has been enabling people to do simple things they fi nd diffi cult to do. The neuroscience of this is the missing link in management training. The authors provide a hugely valuable insight.” –Brian Kingham, Chairman, Reliance Security Group Ltd. “The authors blend neuroscience, brain chemistry, psychology, and business to better understand what leaders do, why they do it, and most importantly how they can change to be more eff ective. The book is infi nitely readable and pragmatic, with fun facts about the brain and practical steps to creating sustainable behavioral change. Covering topics from emotional intelligence to goal setting, values and purpose to self- confi dence, risk to inertia, this book is wide in reach and application.” –Deborah L Ancona, Seley Distinguished Professor of Management, Faculty Director of the MIT Leadership Center 9781137466853_01_prexviii.indd i 08-01-2015 17:25:13 “Thoroughly researched and fi nely written, the real brilliance of Neurosci- ence for Leadership is how it links scientifi c brain network research with solid advice on decision-making, employee motivation, and organizational growth! Perceptive and brilliant!” –Marshall Goldsmith, author or editor of 34 books including the global bestsellers MOJO and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There “If you have ever wondered what could be going on in the brain of individuals you are managing – or in your brain – this book provides a clear, easy to understand, and entertaining neuroscience explanation. More importantly, it shows how to use these neurochemical processes to develop your leadership capacity to full potential and to inspire and motivate others to innovate and achieve common organizational goals.” –Dr William A Ribich, Director, Physical Sciences Inc; Former President, CEO Foster-Miller Inc (one of the 100 most innovative companies in the USA, INC Magazine) “If you are jaded by the torrent of books on leadership and organizational behavior, read this one for a refreshing change! The authors distil the conclusions from neuroscience research and apply them to leadership, governance, management, administration, and personal development in a most readable way. Each chapter presents fascinating vignettes on a wide range of topics.” –Sir John Daniel, O.C., Former Assistant Director-General, UNESCO for Education; Former Vice-Chancellor, The Open University “This stimulating book brims with useful insights and sage advice on practically every page. Managing emotions, communication, decision- making, and intuition are just some of the topics that it illuminates. Highly recommended!” –Dennis Tourish, Professor of Leadership and Organisation Studies, Royal Holloway; author of The Dark Side of Transformational Leadership! 9781137466853_01_prexviii.indd ii 08-01-2015 17:25:14 The Neuroscience of Business series Neuroscience is changing our understanding of how the human brain works and how and why people behave the way they do. Properly understood, many of these insights could lead to profound changes in the way businesses interact with their employees and customers. The problem is that, until now, most of this research has been published in specialist journals and has not made its way to managers’ desks. At the same time, however, business leaders and managers are faced with a plethora of extravagant claims based on misunderstood, or exaggerated, neuroscientific research. Palgrave’s The Neuroscience of Business series seeks to bridge the gap between rigorous science and the practical needs of business. For the first time this series will describe the practical managerial applications of this science in an accessible, but in-depth, way that is firmly underpinned by a clear explanation of the science behind the management actions proposed.

  • Bias in Organisaties En Verandering
    Bias in organisaties en verandering Introductie Volgens de psycholoog en Nobelprijswinnaar Economie Daniel Kahneman zijn er patronen te herkennen in denkfouten die mensen maken. Deze zijn vaak verbonden met intuïtieve vooringenomenheden, neigingen of biases. In dit artikel worden diagnostische termen aangereikt voor deze biases met betrekking tot de belangrijke processen van besluitvorming en samenwerking in organisaties en bij verandering. Titel : Bias in organisaties en verandering Auteurs : Steven ten Have en Cornell Vernooij Verschenen in : Holland Management Review (HMR 194, november-december 2020) Publicatiedatum : 14-12-2020 Tags : verandering Geselecteerd door : Cornell Vernooij ([email protected]) op 16-12-2020 Dit artikel/hoofdstuk is afkomstig uit Holland Management Review.

Die beïnvloeden ook het denken over organisaties en veranderingsprocessen. Biases zjn echter niet aleen maar negatief. Het is zinvol om te begrjpen welke soorten biases zich bj medewerkers kunnen voordoen, en wat die vertekeningen kunnen betekenen voor verandering in een organisatie. Ondernemingen en instelingen worden verondersteld discussie. Kahneman legt de nadruk op stelselmatige vanuit hun purpose – hun economische of maatschap- fouten en veronderstelt herkenbare patronen in denk- peljke opdracht – doelgericht, doelmatig en doelbe- fouten die mensen maken.

    HIP-HOP LIFE AND LIVELIHOOD IN NAIROBI, KENYA By JOHN ERIK TIMMONS A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 © 2018 John Erik Timmons To my parents, John and Kathleen Timmons, my brothers, James and Chris Timmons, and my wife, Sheila Onzere ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The completion of a PhD requires the support of many people and institutions. The intellectual community at the University of Florida offered incredible support throughout my graduate education. In particular, I wish to thank my committee members, beginning with my Chair Richard Kernaghan, whose steadfast support and incisive comments on my work is most responsible for the completion of this PhD. Luise White and Brenda Chalfin have been continuous supporters of my work since my first semester at the University of Florida. Abdoulaye Kane and Larry Crook have given me valuable insights in their seminars and as readers of my dissertation. The Department of Anthropology gave me several semesters of financial support and helped fund pre-dissertation research. The Center for African Studies similarly helped fund this research through a pre-dissertation fellowship and awarding me two years’ support the Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowship. Another generous Summer FLAS Fellowship was awarded through Yale’s MacMillan Center Council on African Studies. My language training in Kiswahili was carried out in the classrooms of several great instructors, Rose Lugano, Ann Biersteker, and Kiarie wa Njogu. The United States Department of Education generously supported this fieldwork through a Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Award.

An expanding body of neuroscience literature increasingly informs clinical practice by validating theory, guiding clinical assessment and conceptualiza­ tion, directing effective interventions, and facilitating cross-disciplinary communication. Little attention, however, has been given to the use of neuroeducation with clients. In this article, the author provides mental health counselors with a definition of neuroeducation and a rationale for incorporating neuroeducation into clinical practice. The author identifies common neuro­ education topics and offers activity suggestions to illustrate their use in counseling. Finally, the author offers best practices for implementing neuroeducation, including attention to counselor competence, client readiness, and neuroscience of learning

  • A Theory of Consumer Fraud in Market Economies
    A THEORY OF FRAUD IN MARKET ECONOMIES ADISSERTATIONIN Economics and Social Science Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Nicola R. Matthews B.F.A, School of Visual Arts, 2002 M.A., State University College Bu↵alo, 2009 Kansas City, Missouri 2018 ©2018 Nicola R. Matthews All Rights Reserved A THEORY OF FRAUD IN MARKET ECONOMIES Nicola R. Matthews, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT Of the many forms of human behavior, perhaps none more than those of force and fraud have caused so much harm in both social and ecological environments. In spite of this, neither shows signs of weakening given their current level of toleration. Nonetheless, what can be said in respect to the use of force in the West is that it has lost most of its competitiveness. While competitive force ruled in the preceding epoch, this category of violence has now been reduced to a relatively negligible degree. On the other hand, the same cannot be said of fraud. In fact, it appears that it has moved in the other direction and become more prevalent. The causes for this movement will be the fundamental question directing the inquiry. In the process, this dissertation will trace historical events and methods of control ranging from the use of direct force, to the use of ceremonies and rituals and to the use of the methods of law. An additional analysis of transformation will also be undertaken with regards to risk-sharing-agrarian-based societies to individual-risk-factory-based ones.
