Podcast on The Brain Advantage
March 10, 2010
Brad Kolar is one of the brightest guys I know. He and I worked together in Accenture back in the mid-90’s. He has been a contributor to all of my books. And now he is the co-author of a fascinating book called “The Brain Advantage. ” I had the privilege of receiving a review copy and loved it so much, I provided an endorsement.
“For years, experts have been teaching leaders so-called soft skills. To date, there has only been anecdotal evidence to support their theories. Finally, The Brain Advantage turns these theories into hard science. Anyone with half a brain would buy copies for their entire organization.”
Recently I interviewed Brad for a podcast. What you will hear are 40 minutes of fascinating dialogue about the brain, leadership, and innovation. By better understanding the brain, you can help unleash the full creative potential of your organization.
