How to Stay Positive When Everything Feels Negative
Staying positive does not mean pretending everything is fine. When work is difficult, the news feels overwhelming, plans are disrupted, or you are dealing with circumstances you cannot control, advice to “just stay positive” can feel unrealistic and even frustrating. This course takes a more practical approach. You’ll learn strategies for building a more constructive mindset without ignoring legitimate problems or forcing yourself to feel cheerful. The goal is not toxic positivity. It is developing habits that help you regain perspective, direct your attention more intentionally, and respond to difficult circumstances in ways that support your wellbeing and effectiveness. You’ll explore how your thoughts, attention, language, and daily habits can influence the way you experience challenging situations. You’ll also learn how to recognize patterns such as catastrophizing, overgeneralizing, and focusing so heavily on what is wrong that you lose sight of what is still possible. Throughout the course, you’ll learn how to: • Practice realistic positivity without denying difficult emotions • Notice thinking patterns that make negative situations feel even harder • Shift attention toward what is useful and within your control • Reframe challenges without pretending they are easy • Reduce unproductive rumination • Build small habits that support resilience • Use gratitude in a realistic, meaningful way • Protect yourself from unnecessary negativity • Respond more intentionally to setbacks • Find constructive next steps when circumstances feel discouraging You do not need to become a naturally positive person to benefit from these strategies. Positivity is not a personality trait you either have or do not have. Many aspects of it can be practiced. Whether you are dealing with workplace challenges, uncertainty, setbacks, difficult relationships, or simply a period when everything seems heavier than usual, this course will give you practical tools for navigating negativity with greater perspective and resilience. You can start with one small practice at a time.
Pathways to Civic Engagement
This course will examine the various ways that individuals engage in a democratic society during the 21st century. Students reflect on their involvement, and sense of responsibility to something beyond individual pursuits, and how they can make a difference within the various contexts of neighborhoods, communities, nationally and globally. Exploration of relevant social problems, critical examination and reflection on what it means to be a citizen within these various contexts as well as an examination of personal values and assumptions, assist students in gaining a deeper understanding of themselves relative to the larger social context. This course also provides opportunities for the development of civic skills and values to enhance the student’s capacity to positively impact their community.
Improve Your Reading Speed and Comprehension
*New Speed Tests added to test your reading speed. *New video: Reading Fiction for Meaning *Please note that improvements by the end of the course will be small because the course is quite short. Your real improvement happens if you continue to practise. Keep in touch, though. I always like to hear from my students - present or past! Student review: "It was great! The concepts and practical activities are taught in a way that's both engaging to listen to and watch, as well as to try and implement on our reading routines! Thank you for the course and knowledge!" The Improve Your Reading Speed and Comprehension course will help you become a better reader. When reading for pleasure, you will remember more of the material and engage with it in a deeper way. When reading for academic purposes, you will retain more information for quizzes, tests, and exams. Also, you will have better access to the material for essay writing, book reports, speeches, and so on. Being able to read is one thing - being able to read well and comprehend what your read is another! Also, increasing your reading speed without losing the essential reading comprehension piece will bring you many rewards no matter what kind of reading you are doing. This is not essentially a typical speed reading course. I want you to improve both speed and comprehension. There will be texts in your life that need to be read more slowly, and that's fine. Some material should even be read aloud. The tips here are primarily to increase speed while reading silently. Improving comprehension can slow one down at first. However, as you become more proficient gaining ground in comprehension will also increase your ability to read faster. It is all related! Please, come and be willing to engage yourself, and you will reap the benefits of improved reading!

Get More Done in Less Time: A 50-Minute Productivity System
Most productivity advice is about doing more. The actual problem is usually different. The reason you feel behind is not that you need a better app or another planner. It's that you're carrying too many half-decisions, working on the wrong things, second-guessing what you already shipped, and treating everything as equally urgent. Productivity isn't speed. It's clarity, applied consistently. This course gives you the system. 50 focused minutes of the highest-leverage productivity shifts, no fluff, no theatrical morning-routine performance.

As a freestyle artist, I'm all about getting outside of my comfort zone, and Jimmy's content always gives me that extra push I need to get going." — Harry Mack, Freestyle rapper who performed twice on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and with Kendrick Lamar and Macklemore "I've been watching Jimmy's videos for 7 years. When I was considering going on BBC show Dragon's Den he convinced me to do it, which in turn took my company to the next level. Jimmy is a person I would recommend to run a powerful team training." — Alex Buzaianu, Entrepreneur who secured Dragon's Den investment in a pitch generating over 1 million views "Jimmy Naraine is a master at breaking apart the difficult and complex.

The two specific moves that take you from "drowning in everything" to "clear about what matters right now." No app required. The Power of the 80/20 Principle, and How to Use It. Most professionals know the 80/20 rule. Very few actually apply it. This is the practical version: how to identify the 20% of your work that drives 80% of your results, and what to do with the rest. Find Your LEVERAGE to Get Better Results. How to dramatically increase your output without working more hours. Leverage is what separates high performers from busy people who feel stuck. How to Overcome Paralysis by Analysis. A practical system for making faster decisions, with less regret, when you'd usually overthink yourself into a corner. Free Yourself from Toxic Perfectionism. The pattern that quietly costs ambitious people years. How to recognize it in yourself and how to step out of it without lowering your standards. The course is designed so each module reinforces the others. By the end you have a working productivity system, not a folder of unrelated tips.

5 Steps to Destroy your Procrastination
All of us at some point have had a project, task or activity that we know is important to us, but that for some reason we are not able to finish or even begin. In those moments we say phrases like: "Tomorrow I start", "Today is not a good day", "I don't feel inspired right now", "First, I am going to rest a little and then I'll start totally energized ", "I organize everything first and then I do that"," One more episode of the series and I'm going to work "... and so many more. All of us who have procrastinated, we don't just decide to do it, however, these phrases are a reflection of something that happens within ourselves every time we think about that activity we are escaping from. Why are we doing this? Many people say that this is because we are not able to manage our time correctly and that is why we always leave things until the last moment, which cannot be further from the truth. The procrastinator is not simply a person who does not know how to manage his time but a person who does not know how to manage his emotions. It is hard to believe at first glance, but it is our fears, limitations, and limiting beliefs about ourselves and the world around us that prevent us from doing the activities we know we have to do to obtain the results we want to achieve. In this course, we will focus precisely on recognizing what procrastination really is, in such a way that we can identify what are the personal factors that are leading us to procrastinate and leave aside what we consider important for our life. Afterwards we will focus on creating habits that allow us to complete our tasks more easily and be more productive in each of the areas of our life in which we have set ourselves a specific goal. This course has been created by a procrastinator for procrastinators, in such a way that it does not become a course that repeats textbooks and self-help, which offer express techniques that in the long term are not useful. Moreover, this course is for those people committed to creating a powerful and radical change in their lives, eliminating those habits that do not allow them to advance in their lives and replacing them for those that are going to take them to the next level. If you are willing to work on yourself and commit to a process that will transform your live and yourself, I welcome to the course!
Professionalism in an era of change
In this course we aim to provide you with an insight into how recent societal and technological developments have changed the work of professionals in a variety of professional domains and how this in turn affects professionalism. The course highlights core themes, discusses main insights and theories, raises questions and presents cases, and links insights to practical challenges in various professional domains. It provides a state of the art assessment of professionalism in transition, by looking back and looking forward. It supports target audiences in dealing with professional services and professionals. The programme has an interdisciplinary approach and will focus on different levels: At macro level the course presents a historical and sociological view on past and future changes in professions, focused on: • how do professional fields develop? • how is professionalism promoted and encouraged among professionals? • how do professional fields control and empower their members? At meso level the course presents an organisational view on changes within professional partnerships and institutions, focused on the following questions: • how do norms and routines affect professionals and professional work? • how do professionals organise and lead professional work? At micro level a psychological perspective on changing work and a changing work environment of professionals is presented. This part focuses on the following questions: • how do professionals deal with work pressure and remain motivated? • which competencies do professionals require to be able and capable to deliver? We invite you to join us and increase your understanding of the topics addressed in this course through lectures, interviews, animations, readings and peer interaction.

Schools and Colleges provide them excellent education to earn good amount of money, but nowhere it is taught how to manage their money to live well today and plan for their family’s good financial future. Personal Financial Planning solves this problem. It helps you and your family to live well today and ensure your family’s good financial future. Financial Planning is based on the fact that every individual has certain basic financial needs to meet at various stages of life such as getting married, buying assets, creating funds for children’s higher education, daughter’s wedding, and for a comfortable retirement life. To have a financial plan, you don’t have to be mega-rich or to be old and approaching retirement. It does not matter how much you earn or what your age is. Financial planning enables you to develop strategies to achieve all your financial needs / goals and deal with unforeseen needs that may arise in life. The best part is that it ensures right amount of money is available at the right point of time in the future to achieve life goals. The flow of this course is designed for easy learning and clear understanding through step by step simple approach. It is like learning a, b,c, d…., no fuss. I have prepared a Financial Planning booklet in pdf format, and the charts in excel sheets for you to complete your Financial Planning for your family.

Gain Self Discipline, Willpower, Self-Control And Resilience
Conquer and reverse compulsive behaviors that damage and undermine all your life's hard work by gaining more discipline and willpower. Become more resilient to small daily failures, and gain mental fortitude that will make you stronger for the rest of your life. SELF DISCIPLINE IS A TOPIC EXAMINED BY THE GREATEST THINKERS IN HISTORY Great emperors of Rome, philosophers of ancient Greece, great military thinkers, and modern scientists have all wrestled with the question of how we can all improve our lives and the lives of people around us by becoming more disciplined and gaining more willpower. Over many centuries, they have collectively come up with a number of ideas which I boil down for you in this course, so you don't have to read thousands of pages of textbooks. USE MINDFULNESS TO GAIN WILLPOWER AND SELF DISCIPLINE When you are more mindful about what you are currently doing, you will make better moment-to-moment decisions, and not give into compulsive behaviors. You can always takes few extra moments and rethink the decision you are about to act on, and reconsider whether your behaviors will aid or damage your overall effort. The act of being mindful and imagining two possible outcomes is often enough to gain the willpower and self discipline you need to do the right thing. DON'T LET SHORT-TERM, COMPULSIVE DECISIONS DERAIL YOUR EFFORTS Compulsive behaviors and rash decisions tend to be quite damaging. They can range from food choices to exercise choices to business decisions to even choices of whether to get angry or not, and how to best handle potentially threatening situations. MANAGE STRESS IN ORDER TO GAIN MORE WILLPOWER AND DISCIPLINE Short-term stress isn't considered bad. It can even be helpful to give us energy and focus to take on immediate challenges. But when stress reaches the point of overwhelm, we tend to fall into coping mechanisms that tend to be undesired behaviors that we aren't as mindful about. In fact, mindfulness itself becomes harder to do because our minds are so consumed with that feeling of overwhelm. TIME MANAGEMENT AND TASK ELIMINATION TO DECREASE OVERWHELM When we decrease the intensity of our immediate stressors, they aren't as likely to cause the feeling of being overwhelmed, and that can make it easier to be more mindful about our discipline, and immediately give us more willpower. BALANCE WHEN TO USE WILLPOWER AND SELF DISCIPLINE Don't confuse discipline with willpower. Willpower is the process of forcing yourself to do something in the moment. Self discipline refers to your overall handling of a situation from your mindset to your planning to your execution of certain tasks. For greatest success, combine when you use willpower and when you use self discipline. Sometimes forcing yourself is possible, but often it's not. When forcing yourself to do something out of sheer will isn't possible, you'll be able to employ many tactics to work smarter and not work harder by being intelligent and sophisticated about your self discipline. DON'T MAKE DECISIONS WHEN TIRED The problem with making decisions when tired is similar to the problem of making decisions while feeling overwhelmed. It's just harder to think everything through. It's also harder to find the willpower for self discipline when tired. If you are tired, it's often smarter to just rest instead of forcing yourself to do some next task because you will gain diminishing returns if you are working while being tired. THE MARSHMELLOW TEST FOR DISCIPLINE AND WILLPOWER We'll also discuss the famous Marshmellow test, which tests the discipline and willpower in children. The Marshmellow test has been a strong predictor of later-life and school success. Invest in your future! Enroll today!

University Studies for Student Veterans
The skills you learned in the military will go a long way toward helping you succeed in college, but if you’re looking for some extra support – or an academic tune-up – then you’ll find it in this course. We know that the culture of higher education is different from the culture of the military in meaningful ways, and we also know that one of the keys to excelling in college–especially for student veterans–is learning to navigate these differences successfully, right from the very start. This course aims to help you do just that. First, the course will orient you to the norms and expectations of the college classroom. The quicker you know what is expected of you, the quicker you can start learning. Second, the course will offer you strategies to ease your transition, to help you achieve your academic goals, and to allow you to make the most of your college education. While this course is open to everyone, the content has been tailored specifically for student veterans currently pursuing higher education, active duty service members who aspire to start school or return to school soon, and higher education professionals who work to support student veterans at their schools. If this sounds like you, and if you’re ready to learn how to make your transition easier and more successful, then we hope you’ll join us. This online curriculum may be used in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, as a start-to finish, self-directed online experience (MOOC). It can also, in its current format, serve as an “orientation” for other student veteran success programs. We also invite you to utilize this resource as a library/toolkit of academic success strategies, a tool for flipped classroom pedagogy, or a companion text for on-the-ground transition courses. We welcome the opportunity to assist higher education institutions (both 2-year and 4-year), military installation education services officers and transition assistance programs, veteran focused non-profit organizations, and more. To get underway, contact us at the Columbia University Center for Veteran Transition and Integration.
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Marcus Aurelius was Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD. He faced attacks on the Empire from Germans in the North, Egypt in the south and on his Eastern flanks. These conflicts exposed Rome's armies to plague, massacre and relentless guerrilla warfare. Although not trained as a General, Aurelius campaigned on the battlefields with his men. He kept journals whilst fighting wars (12 books in all) to collect his thoughts on his Fate and the vicissitudes of Life. His "meditations" are a formula for remaining steadfast in the face of appalling circumstances. Copies of his notes survived and one is kept in the Vatican library - great leaders have studied them for inspiration. He argues that any conditions can be made tolerant through: 1. Sound ongoing education and free thinking. 2. Personal conclusions which one must draw about the way the Universe works to find meaning and purpose. 3. Work from these first principles to determine the character traits needed to sustain a harmonious existence. This system underpins the training of future leaders in English public schools and has found its way into Leadership Coaching and Personal Development training. This course will give some context to Meditations. We link the core principles to the way you can Live and Lead today.

Remote Viewing Practitioner Training: A Practical Method
Remote Viewing: Develop Accurate Psychic Perception Remote viewing becomes useful when curiosity is paired with method. You may already receive unexpected images, shapes, colours, textures or feelings when focusing on a person, place or object. The difficulty is knowing whether you genuinely perceived something—or unconsciously created an answer from the information you already had. Remote viewing gives you a way to explore that question. In this course, I will teach you a structured process for working with blind targets, recording your first impressions and comparing what you perceived with the actual target afterwards. You will learn to value the process rather than chase a perfect result, record misses as honestly as hits and improve through repeatable practice. This is not about proving that every impression is psychic. It is about discovering what you can perceive when the answer is genuinely unknown—and learning from the evidence that follows. What this course will help you do Through the course, you will learn how to: • Understand what remote viewing is and how it differs from imagination or ordinary guessing • Complete a structured remote-viewing session from beginning to end • Work with a blind target without knowing what you are trying to perceive • Settle your mind without forcing it to become completely empty • Notice the first impressions that arrive before analysis takes over • Record colours, shapes, textures, temperatures, movement and atmosphere • Sketch what you perceive without worrying about artistic ability • Separate raw sensory information from interpretation • Recognise when your mind may be trying to name the target too quickly • Compare your notes with clear feedback after the session • Score your accuracy without exaggerating a hit or dismissing useful information • Learn from misses without treating them as failure • Identify the ways psychic information naturally reaches you • Develop greater reliability through consistent, repeatable practice • Carry stronger discernment and self-trust into your psychic readings Work with a genuinely blind target A proper remote-viewing session begins without knowing what the target is. You may be given a number, code or reference that has been assigned to an image, location, object or event. The target itself remains hidden until you have completed and recorded your impressions. This matters because prior knowledge can influence what you expect to perceive. If you know the target is a building, your mind may immediately begin producing doors, windows and walls. If you know it is a natural landscape, you may start searching for water, trees or mountains. When the target is blind, you cannot deliberately construct the correct answer. You must work with what arises. That does not guarantee that every impression will be accurate. It gives you a cleaner way to examine what you received and understand how closely it corresponds with the target. Notice before you interpret Remote-viewing information often begins simply. You may notice a colour. A curved line. A rough texture. A sense of height. The feeling of movement, openness, heat or cold. The analytical mind naturally wants to turn these fragments into a complete answer. A curved shape and the feeling of water may become “a boat”. Height and coldness may become “a mountain”. That conclusion might be correct—but it might also cause you to overlook everything that does not fit the story you have created. This course will help you remain with the raw information for longer. Instead of immediately naming the target, you will record what you actually perceive. You can note the shape, movement, temperature or texture without deciding what it must represent. This creates space between perception and interpretation. That space is where greater accuracy can begin. Record your impressions as they arrive You do not need to be able to draw well to practise remote viewing. Your sketches are not intended to become works of art. They are a visual record of what you noticed during the session. A line might represent the edge of a structure. A circle may show a repeated shape. Marks across the page may suggest movement, water, vegetation or a particular arrangement within the target. You can also record words, feelings and sensory impressions. You may notice: • Bright or muted colours • Smooth, rough, hard or soft surfaces • Open or enclosed spaces • Natural or constructed materials • Heat, cold, wind or moisture • Stillness, movement, height or depth • A quiet, busy, heavy or uplifting atmosphere The aim is to capture the information before memory, judgement and hindsight begin changing it. Once your session is complete, you can compare your original notes with the target exactly as you recorded them. Score your accuracy honestly Feedback is one of the most valuable parts of remote viewing. When the target is revealed, it can be tempting to search for evidence that you were correct. A vague mark becomes a perfect match. A general feeling is stretched until it seems to describe the target. Information that did not correspond is quietly forgotten. That does not help you develop. Equally, you may dismiss an entire session because you named the target incorrectly, even though several of your original sensory impressions were accurate. Honest scoring requires balance. You will learn to compare your notes with what was actually present, recognise genuine correspondence and acknowledge information that did not match. A hit is useful. A miss is also useful. Both teach you something about how you receive, where interpretation entered the process and what you can approach differently in your next session. Learn without needing to be right Remote viewing becomes far more difficult when every session feels like a test of whether you are psychic. The need to succeed creates pressure. Pressure encourages guessing, forcing and changing your original impressions to fit what you hope the target will be. This course will help you approach each target as practice rather than proof. Some sessions may contain several clear correspondences. Others may feel confusing or produce very little accurate information. You may perceive one feature strongly while missing the overall nature of the target. That variation is part of development. You are not trying to create a flawless record. You are learning to notice how information arrives, where your mind interferes and what becomes more consistent through practice. Reliability grows when you are willing to record the truth of every session—not only the ones that make you look successful. Follow a repeatable process One successful impression can feel exciting, but it does not necessarily create a dependable ability. A repeatable method gives you something more valuable. You will learn how to prepare for the session, receive the target reference, record your impressions, sketch what arises, close the session and examine the feedback afterwards. Using the same basic process allows you to compare one experience with another. Over time, you may begin noticing patterns. Perhaps your first sensory impression is often the most accurate. You may discover that you perceive textures clearly but begin guessing when you try to name objects. You may find that information arrives through bodily feeling, visual fragments or a simple inner knowing. The more honestly you document your sessions, the better you can understand your own psychic language. Carry greater reliability into your readings Remote viewing is not only about perceiving distant locations or hidden images. The discipline can strengthen the way you approach other forms of psychic work. During a reading, it is easy to receive a simple impression and immediately build a larger story around it. You may change what you first received because it appears too ordinary, does not make sense or seems unlikely to be correct. Remote-viewing practice teaches you to pause. What did you actually perceive? What did you add afterwards? What can be offered as an impression, and what remains interpretation? That distinction can help you become clearer and more responsible in your readings. You learn to communicate what you genuinely receive without exaggerating it—and to remain comfortable when an impression cannot immediately be understood. The goal is not certainty. It is greater honesty, discernment and reliability. You do not need mediumship experience Remote viewing can be explored as its own practice. You do not need to be a working medium, professional psychic or experienced spiritual practitioner. Many people begin here because they are curious about their perception and appreciate having a structured way to test it. You do not need dramatic visions. You do not need to enter a trance. You do not need to believe that every mark on the page carries profound meaning. You need curiosity, patience and a willingness to follow the protocol without trying to manufacture a result. The structure gives you a place to begin. Practice helps you discover what may be possible. An honest experience of channelled teaching The teaching within this course was channelled as it happened. I chose not to polish away its natural rhythm because I wanted you to experience the guidance as it arrived—not as a perfect performance, but as a genuine spiritual connection unfolding in real time. What came through is what you receive. The teaching may not always feel perfectly rehearsed, but that is part of its authenticity. It reflects the same principle you will use within remote viewing: receive what is present, record it honestly and resist the temptation to reshape it afterwards. Learn with personal support You will not be left to work everything out alone. I have spent more than 40 years developing spiritually, working with psychic perception and helping people understand how information reaches them. If you become uncertain about the protocol, struggle to interpret your notes or want help understanding what happened during a session, ask me through the course and I will answer you personally. I do not simply offer you a collection of videos. I offer continued guidance as you learn to test, understand and develop your psychic perception with greater confidence and honesty. Your place on the Psychic Senses Path This is Step Four of my Psychic Senses Path. You do not need mediumship experience before beginning. Many people choose remote viewing as their first structured exploration of psychic perception because it provides a clear process and direct feedback. Your recommended next step is: Aura Reading Certified This will help you carry your developing sensitivity into reading the energy surrounding people. You can also take Seeing at Distance as a bundle and continue exploring psychic perception beyond the immediate physical environment. Your certificates Your personal course certificate is waiting for you in the final lecture. Download it, add your name and keep it as a record of this stage in your development. Udemy will also issue its official Certificate of Completion automatically after you have completed every lecture. Replace guesswork with practice Remote viewing is not about turning every impression into evidence of extraordinary ability. It is about working carefully. You receive a blind target. You settle your attention. You record the first shapes, colours, textures and feelings that arise. You sketch what you perceive before your analytical mind can rewrite it. Then you look at the feedback. You acknowledge what corresponded. You record what did not. And you begin again. That process can help you build something more useful than occasional excitement. It can help you develop patience, discernment and a more honest relationship with your psychic senses. Join me, and learn how to explore remote viewing with curiosity, structure and trust in the process. A note about optional resources The final section contains optional information about my other courses, free resources and current offers. It is separate from the teaching, nothing within it is required, and this course is complete without it.

The Science of Leadership
CPE Accredited course (Continuing Professional Education) If you are a manager or entrepreneur in charge of a team, this course is for you. This course has the ambition to build a bridge between a century of science and 21st century managers. A bridge between how our brain works and how to use that knowledge to improve our communication and leadership abilities. To understand how and why Leadership works, we first need to understand what triggers us. We’ll be diving deep into our subconscious motivational processes. We’ll have a look at our brain, call it our ‘hardware’ and the subconscious programs running in it, that’s basically our software. So expect tools, concrete and simple tools that you will be able to use right away with your team and colleagues. In the end, the aim of this course is to open the way for a new understanding of motivation and communication, towards a new, highly effective and sustainable model for leadership in this 21st century. But most of all, by the end of this course, my aim is that you, as a manager, as a leader, will have understood what a crucial role you play in your team and in its success. And that you will be able to leverage that knowledge and guide your team to a new level of collaboration and engagement. The Science behind the course... I will provide a framework based on the latest insights in cognitive psychology and related fields. Within this framework I will present you studies, research and experiments on human behavior and I will show you how they apply to leadership and team management. Behavioral sciences have gained an increased understanding of who we are as a species, what motivates us, what de-motivates us. Why we follow some people, and why we seemingly contradict ourselves so often. The insights gained through social psychology, ethology, cognitive sciences and more recently the rapid breakthroughs in neurosciences thanks to MRI’s and advances in neuro-imagery, have given science a whole new understanding of who we are as human beings. But then, when we look at the corporate world and management styles, there’s like this huge gap between both worlds. Now this course, the Science of Leadership, aims to build a bridge between both. Giving managers the understanding of what drives their teams, and the tools to act upon it. • Discover a groundbreaking model - and manage yourself and others • Connect with your team - and discover what truly motivates them • Improve your coaching skills - through powerful communication tools • Fire up engagement in your team - by using two secret ingredients • Generate trust - and boost performance • Boost loyalty - and stop your people from going to your competitors • And So Much More... such as genetics, cognitive biases, subconscious belief systems, hiring protocols, sexism, bullying, change processes, brainstorming, meetings and so on ... CPE (Continuing Professional Education) Learning Objectives • Recognize the 3 main subconscious influencers of human behaviour • Recognize how 4 brain structures influence our decision-making process • Differentiate between intrinsic and extrinsic motivations • Identify the most important brain chemicals involved in employee engagement • Identify cognitive biases negatively affecting team performance • Identify the most influential studies on how our social environment affects our behaviour • Understand the consequences of communicating in different mental modes For additional information, including refunds and complaints, please see Udemy Terms of Use, which is linked from the footer of this page.
