Management Rewired – Not!
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009The disciplines of management and leadership have the most to gain from advances in the cognitive and neuro sciences that reveal how people perceive, learn, think, feel and inter-relate. Especially in the era of knowledge work where emotional quotients are more important than intelligence quotients and overall cognitive performance is a matter of competitive advantage, leaders must do what they can to understand and support the “workflow between the ears”.
And we have learned a lot about how the mind works but it does not seem to be rewiring our approach to management and leadership.
Why is that?
