Overview
This intensive two-hour workshop equips leaders and professionals with evidence-based, brain-friendly tools to thrive during periods of intense change.
Participants will explore the science of how the human brain processes uncertainty and the biological reasons why resistance to change is a natural response. By introducing the PEPE© model (Pain, Energy, Peaks and Valleys, and Error detection), the session provides immediate, practical strategies to boost personal resilience and sustain team motivation.
Leaders will gain a foundational understanding of the nervous system’s influence on decision-making, enabling them to communicate with greater empathy and transparency.
This session is ideal for busy professionals looking to convert change-related challenges into opportunities for growth.
