Introduction
Before we start...
As said before, we can apply brain science to almost anything.
Take business for example. If you zoom into the human aspect of business, it becomes a no-brainer.
We already saw how marketing and brain science are a great mix. Same thing with parenting.
But when it comes to leadership, I’ve been shocked to see how much science knows about human interaction, and how little of it is being applied in companies and organisations all around the globe.
So we thought it was time to create a course on combining both, and showing how it’s done 🙂
Behold, here it is…
