Are you training your brain as your body?

You are used to taking care of your body by exercising a few times each week. In the same way, your brain needs training.

 

Training your brain is critical in these times of rapid change and uncertainty. You need to be better than Artificial Intelligence and robots and be adaptive and resilient. 

 

By upgrading your brain, you will be ready for the new world of work. 

The challenges in our society and the environment need your fresh thinking as well.

 

By training your brain, you will also work on minimizing the negative impacts of aging, like dementia. Research shows that one in four people has a brain disorder.

 

Preventive maintenance is a regular practice for cars, teeth, and central heating. But not for our most important tool, the brain.

 

Use it or lose is true for both your body and your brain. Therefore, it is essential to train your brain – regularly.



Problem

Artificial Intelligence, automation, and robotics are taking over jobs. The exponential change in technology leads to a major transition in society, in work, and in income.

 

Many people feel stuck, and experience stress, burnout, depression, or worse.

 

Every day 150,000 people die of the effects of old age. 

Aging doesn’t just cause innumerable deaths, it is also the source of many debilitating illnesses like dementia.

 

The climate emergency forces us to adopt new ways of learning, living and working.

 

Education has not prepared you for these challenges of the 21st century. 

 

Your brain needs an upgrade.





Solution

The good news is that you can train your brain like you train your muscles. Even better, your brain can form new connections and pathways and change how its circuits are wired. 

 

The Brain Athletes program enables you to upgrade your brain and confidently address challenges. 

By weekly training your brain, you can optimize your health, work, and longevity.

10 most common leadership shortcomings and how to resolve them

After scrutinizing 360-degree feedback data on over 11,000 leaders and evaluating the 10% considered the least effective, Jack Zenger and Joseph Folkman found the 10 most common leadership shortcomings . These are ranked according to the size of the difference between successful and unsuccessful leaders' scores; successful and failed leaders differed most significantly in their energy and enthusiasm.  Please find the listing below as well my suggestions on how to change them.   1.     Lack of energy and enthusiasm If you do your job just because you have to, if it feels like it is something you should do (rather than would like to do), then it drains your energy. If you are a leader mainly because you are attracted to the status, the power and the money, then you will lack the necessary enthusiasm. Your heart is not connected, so it just is an economic and rational activity. This activity is not fuelled by your enthusiasm. If you do work, which you love to do, if you foll

Do you feel like you’re running around in a straitjacket?

  If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.  ~ Abraham Maslow Do you feel like you’re running around in a straitjacket? Or swimming in ice hockey gear? You probably think this sounds ridiculous. Still, that is what we all do, most of the time. We let beliefs limit us.  We believe that we are not good enough. We believe that we cannot change or grow. We believe everything that mass-media tells us. Most of the time, fear is driving our behavior . And fear definitely makes us risk-averse. When I ask people whether they are using their full potential, they look at me in a sad way. They immediately feel the pain of not living up to their own capabilities. Many people are suffering because they feel not seen and not good enough. As a consequence, they lack self-confidence and experience stress, burnout, depression or worse.  Why is this the case?  It is crucial to understand that parents, teach

AMAZON’S Backlog in Building Earth's Most Customer-Centric Company

Image
Last week I did read an article in TechCrunch that Amazon now accepts American Express membership rewards points for purchases on Amazon.com. Well this is good news, I thought, as I have quite some points to use. So, I logged into the specific page on Amazon to link both accounts. I just had to fill in a few details regarding my American Express account and then hit the last button ‘Link rewards account’. But........ nothing happened, I expected a confirmation page which tells me that everything is linked now, but no reaction at all. I could only see that my cursor was back at the place where I first provided my details. So, I tried again and again, but every time no result. Pff, this was frustrating. While I was so happy with the possibility of buying books from my points. What to do next? I had to get in touch with customer service. This is where we get in an area where there is a huge opportunity for improvement. It is very difficult to find a way to email/contact customer serv
