“Brain-Based Business Communication”: An Innovative Tool to Enhance Your Business Success

Workshop time: 9:00am to 4:30pm

Effective management communications have been the pivotal tools in many organizations’ climb to success. Conversely, poor communication is regularly cited as the reason for the failure of managers and business leaders – and, the poor performance of their firms. Making sure that both your message and the intent are clear and unmistakable is critical to guaranteeing that your message gets across accurately, and that in return you get the response and support you need to be successful.

How can you accomplish this? By understanding the way that you – and others – think. Every individual has a unique thinking style, based on the brain’s 4 thinking quadrants, and each quadrant has a distinct set of characteristics that determines thinking preferences for: (1) Analysis; (2) Strategy; (3) Connection to others; and (4) Implementation & Action. Knowing, and accurately aligning your communications with the listener’s thinking style increases the odds of finding support for your message, rather than uncommitted resistance.

Based on the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI), a scientifically validated assessment of thinking styles, the process of Whole Brain Thinking provides the key to increased productivity and performance that yields the extra communication resources that place you head and shoulders above everyone else.

By understanding your thinking styles and the styles of others, you will:

  • Accomplish more by learning and applying your brain’s natural thinking processes
  • Adapt your communication advantageously to the thinking style of others
  • Enhance your leadership capabilities by positively influencing people to see and support your point of view
  • Become a more valuable leader in your organization

Prework

Each participant will take the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument, an online survey of thinking styles. Confidential results will be mailed to Cornell prior to the workshop.

Who Will Benefit

Managers, supervisors, team members and individual contributors seeking to enhance their brain power, think more creatively, and communicate & work more effectively.
