EMCC Global Research for Impact: Coaching-Leadership and Neurosciences: The state of the art literature review

Register Now! 

Are you curious to know more about neurosciences and its impact on coaching and leadership?

Join us for an interactive session where Lorenzo, Joana and Luca will share their literature review outcomes and reflect on their implications on our profession. 

“What are the main results that we can draw from the literature on coaching/mentoring and leadership using the knowledge coming from neuroresearch studies?”

“What is the eventual gap and how can this knowledge be useful to future research and eventual interventions?”

They will:

- present an update on how coaching/mentoring from a neuroscientific point of view (e.g., evidence-based fMRI studies) can contribute to leadership development
- look at new research options to give us more robust, scientific evidence based outcomes, on the coaching/mentoring effects of the brain and the correlated human/leadership behaviours.
