Using feelings and emotions for higher involvement in safety
Creating an environment where People can make a difference
Emotions play a huge role in influencing people’s decisions and behaviors. And the last 25 years of neuroscience research has shown that emotions are intimately tied to and interact in complex ways with thought and decision-making processes; and that ultimately, to change people’s behavior you must change how they feel.When it comes to managing change in your organization, are your leaders communicating with employees in ways that connect with emotions and inspire lasting improvements in behavior?
