“Increase the positive impact of your coaching conversations”

“Amy Brann’s practical and pragmatic approach to neuroscience helps you to put insight into action. For coaches this information can help you to improve your practice and increase the positive impact of your coaching conversations”

Helen Tupper CEO Amazing If and Co-author of The Squiggly Career

Everyone has unrealized potential.

To unlock it, you need to know more about the place this potential comes from – the human brain.

The problem is that there is no manual for how the brain works.  And with so much information out there, it’s really hard to know what’s fact and what’s fluff. We believe that every Coach, L&D Professional and People Manager should be able to access the scientific insights they need to grow their business and develop the people they work with. We understand that time is precious and you don’t have the capacity to sift through endless academic journals to find those all important practical takeaways. That’s why we have invested years in doing the research and credible summarising for you.

Order Neuroscience for Coaches today to stay credible, level up your coaching practices and make a greater difference to the personal and professional development of the people you work with.

“When it comes to the field of Neuroscience, Amy is simply the best”

“When it comes to the field of Neuroscience, Amy is simply the best. And I’ve looked! The way she is able to turn a scientific subject into something practical and meaningful in the world of work means that this book is a must read for anyone who intrinsically understands the value of Neuroscience in the real, lived world, but hasn’t quite been able to bridge the gap yet.”

Hodl Whittaker, Learning Manager for Group, Tesco

All organisations need managers who are good coaches.

For organisations to get the very best out of their people it’s not enough to have good managers. You need managers who are good coaches too. But transitioning from people manager to empowering coach is not always easy.

At Synaptic Potential we know management and we know coaching. So we’ve put these two together to create a great trainer led development programme specifically for organizations who want to level up their managers to unlock the brain potential of their teams through the power of coaching.

Her 3rd edition is a powerful update of how various aspects of our brain and neural processes affect us when interacting and trying to motivate or inspire subordinates or clients to be open to learning and change.”
