Since the early days of “creativity training” and “problem solving,” brain research has vastly enriched our understanding of the human mental process.

New research findings with very practical, down-to-earth applications may well revolutionize our understanding of the ways people think, learn, and perform.

Functions like social intelligence; emotional intelligence; practical intelligence; cognitive preference; neuroleadership; design psychology; and subliminal impacts of color, language, and narrative are opening up new ways to approach teaching, learning, and development.

Karl will discuss the components of applied cognitive neuroscience; their implications for human development; and how to apply them in your work, career, and personal life.

According to Albrecht, “actually, training /is/ applied cognitive neuroscience, and all learning professionals are aspiring neuroscientists.”
