STUCK: Brain Smart Insights for Coaches

We are delighted to announce that MyBrain director Gill McKay has published her first book, which is now available on Amazon.

Through a mix of up to date neuroscientific research and real coaching stories Gill Mckay has written a book that helps coaches:

• Generate deeper questioning through helpful brain-based language

• Help clients see that they have multiple options through neuroplasticity

• Liberate clients by dampening non-serving neural circuits

• Provide an empirical basis for effective and lasting change

• Enable clients to unpick their stuck stage by understanding the neuroscience behind it

With more than 100 pieces of up to date neuroscientific research and through stories of real client conversations, STUCK will help all readers understand why they are stuck and what to do about it by taking a peek inside their brains.

Although written mainly for coaches, the book will be just as valuable to trainers, facilitators, HR and L&D professionals and anyone interested in the development of self and others.

10 Reasons why Neuroscience Adds Value to Coaching

Neuroscience is a subject that is getting mentioned more and more in the context of coaching, training and organisational development. But while it may be a subject of great interest, the question people should be asking is: what are the benefits?

How stories engage our brains

Effective communications is all about getting one person to understand another - understanding the words they use, the context, nuance etc. We achieve this when our brains are aligned, and the more aligned they become, the more effective the communication.

In this short article we look at the way in which brain alignment is enhanced when communication is based around a story.
