PART 2 – Interactive webinar series: adaptable mindset for professionals

ATTENTION! This webinar has been cancelled.
The past year has been rife with uncertainty, whilst society has been shaken to its core in light of the pandemic. Our partners are dealing with these now, using the full power of the adaptable mindset to innovate and push their organisations further when it is most needed. In light of recent developments, the webinar has been cancelled.

Wondering what to do next?
You can follow the Adaptable Mindset online course. You will learn to nurture the necessary skills and be guided through the essential tools and methods to build and maintain an adaptable mindset.

Learn how to create the right environment for your team and increase your collaborative innovation power.

In three webinars we explore how to empower people, build teams, and organizations which are adaptable by nature. Based both on science and practical experience, within corporates like Heineken, Liberty Global, eBay and a few startups, we found out what works and what doesn’t.

Part 2: Create the right environment for the team

“If the social environment is safe and supportive, the genes that encode dopamine receptors are turned on. With more receptors, the sense of intrinsic reward form discovery and curiosity is greater.” American Journal of psychiatry. A New Intellectual Framework for Psychiatry.

There is so much potential in making teams more innovative by creating the right environment for them to flourish. Empower your team with new techniques based on the latest neuroscience and practical tools, optimized for a remotely connected world.

In this part we will learn how to empower the team:
