The session aims to provide a foundational understanding of the neuroscience influencing human behavior and decision-making.

Helping others be responsible for their actions… 1. Support an understanding of how to motivate people and groups by igniting the chemicals necessary to inspire and elevate another’s value. 2. Model how accountability motivates people to do what you want them to do and connect them to what they want to complete. 3. Illustrate the process of creating agreements that connect peoples’ value sets in a community context. 4. Predict the process to make agreements that follow an individual's needs and inspirations.

The neuro-mechanisms of a brilliant brain… 1. Explore the misunderstood mechanisms of the brain and how the predicting brain evolves in conjunction with social environmental experiences. 2. Investigate the Neuro mechanisms [M.A.K.E.-U.P.] – Memory, Attention, Knowledge, Efficacy, Undoubtable, Patterns 3. Understand the neuro infotropic efforts that the brain navigates between safety and threat, risk and reward, and pain and pleasure. 4. Inspect the 4 domains and how these domains provide input that informs social order- in the evolution from mammals to humans. 5. Reflect on the neurological mechanisms that guide social interactions and individual introspection. 6. Develop proficiency in how mechanisms of the brain function to interpret and understand environment. (M: Memory: A: Attention, K: Knowledge E: Efficacy U: Undoubtable P: Patterns) (See: Chabris, C., & Simons, D. (2011). The invisible gorilla: How our intuitions deceive us. Harmony)

Empathy from the inside out… 27. Demonstrate how to cultivate empathy internally and externally in the work setting 28. Formulate understandings and determine solutions to increase both self-awareness and social awareness. 29. Classify and critique the principals of neuro insight (the chemicals at work in correlation with achievement and experiences) [A.P.P.L.E. P.I.E.] to enhance insights and applications in the individual and group ability to neuro task. 30. Break down brain strategies for increasing perceptions and values that increase individual and group work and accountability.

Building a culture and community of learning… 1. Inspect the neurobiology between causation and correlation a. Four pillars of learning Attention b. Active engagement c. Error feedback d. Consolidation 2. Integrate information and practice based on how the brain minds the attention and filters experiences, emotions, and energy. 3. Grapple with brain hierarchy affects: how we engage, navigate pain, and process trauma. 4. Reflect on how the brain constructs over a lifespan and apply these insights to the individual learning experience.

What your brain is telling you to say… 1. Comprehend how communication changes based on the emotional state of mind. 2. Conceptualizing that communication styles are determined by relational status and position, not personality. 3. Understand how the brain’s interpretation of social experience and connection impacts communication style, emotional reaction, and behavior choices

The team-building prowess of the brain… 1. Apply concepts impacting relationships: Sensory data, internalization of threat, production of safety. 2. Understand and identify the greatest protective and risk factors affecting the predicting brain. 3. Inspect our value sets that point to the deficit between cognitive interpretation and emotional experience. Reflect and investigate the social models created based on these social norms. 4. Examine the patterns and models one brings into the workspace that encourages/discourage collaboration.

The science of getting things done… 1. Build an understanding of how the brain helps you get things done. 2. Compare how your brain expends and sources energy to construct insights into task completion. 3. Determine how to optimize the completion of tasks.

- Examine the science behind the predicting brain and the importance of a safe and connected environment - Explore multiple design theories for healing spaces - Learn the elements and options available to create a space that is trauma informed and supports diverse populations - Identify policies and procedures to encourage organizational goals
