About Neu Perspectives
Driving brain states that drive results
Did you know your work environment can regularly trigger the brain's threat response, reducing your employees' mental capacity by 50-75% at times! (Leiberman. M. Social 2013)
Using brain-based approaches at work creates the positive brain states needed for an adaptable, resilient and high-performing workforce.
At Neu Perspectives, we help you create the positive brain states that drive organisational results.
Every member of the team can play a role in creating essential conditions and brain states that enhance, rather than hinder, employee engagement, collaboration, and performance.
We build your team's capability to:
-
Leaders - create work environments that drive positive brain states
-
Teams - interact in ways that switch the brain from 'me' to 'we' for better collaboration
-
Employees - respond more effectively to change, challenges, interactions and workload
-
Everyone - utilise the brain's advanced functionality for optimal performance and wellbeing
Let us help your organisation create a workforce that thinks effectively, behaves positively and performs extraordinarily.

How could we not know this in organisations?
The story of why brain science led to an on-the-spot decision to change my career.
Several years ago I was researching concepts for a new development program when I came across the neuroscience of leadership, learning and performance.
I knew immediately that it had the potential to change workplaces for the better. It brought together everything I believed in about creating positive work environments where organisations AND their people can thrive. The difference was that neuroscience finally provided the evidence-based knowledge and skills to make it a reality.
Why was this application of neuroscience not well known in organisations? I made an on-the-spot decision to change that.
Building expertise in applied neuroscience took time - completing accreditations and spending thousands of hours reading and learning. My career in National People & Culture and Learning & Development roles provided the all-important operational understanding of how the science could be applied within organisations to the greatest effect.
I started small, sharing concepts 1:1 in over 1000 coaching sessions. Participants talked about how it changed their whole way of working, leading and interacting in their workplace and the difference they saw in their team's engagement.
I was impatient to share the concepts more widely, so I designed workshops (and now video-based programs) to teach the skills to apply neuroscience to team collaboration, adaptation, performance, wellbeing, leadership, psychosocial safety and learning design and delivery. Along with speaking at conferences and team days, I deliver these programs to clients large and small, government and corporate, profit and for-purpose.
The audiences have grown, I have grown, and neuroscience findings just keep growing...and we're far from done yet! Our world needs workplaces where people feel engaged, purpose-driven and included. Our brains are wired for this, and we are happier, healthier and more productive when we experience it. This positivity flows over to our personal lives and our communities and I believe our world needs more of this right now.
