The brain and the 21st century sustainable post-Covid organisation: defining the new organisation from an applied neuroscience perspective

^{Hosted by Prof Paul Brown}

It is apparent that the performance-driven organisation has come to the end of its life-cycle - an ending accelerated by Covid and the unexpected discoveries that organisations have made regarding different patterns of working. But unhappily HR does not professionally have answers to the fundamental questions of ‘What is a person?’ and ‘What is an organisation?’ upon which to build a redesign - radical or otherwise - of the organisation.

There is, this century, a fundamental shift going on in our knowledge about human behaviour. The modern brain sciences are showing us in ways never previously understood how it is that biology underpins human behaviour, of which our individual psychology is an output. This presentation by Paul Brown explores the implications of the new understandings that start to explain, not just describe, why we humans act the way we do and how that knowledge can be taken into organisational design and individual development.

Paul Brown is Professor of Organisational Neuroscience at Monarch Business School Switzerland and Visiting Professor at Henley Business School.
