If you’ve attended CultureCon, you may have seen Dr. Niraj Nijhawan‘s presentation that simplifies brain science. He helps you to apply actionable strategies to shift from reactive Lower-Brain patterns to the more fearless, solution-focused Higher Brain. Now Dr. Raj is teaming up with a truly masterful facilitator, Darin Harris, to lead a two-day evidence-based program to transform your leadership skills and help you become more resilient.
I’ve learned from and collaborated with Darin Harris and Dr. Raj and can tell you that these two are on a mission to help others learn, change and transform. They can help you build capacity for self regulation under challenging situations. I feel this is a critical leadership and professional skill in our current times…brain awareness and shifting our mental state for resilience.
