Certainty

How Great Bosses Can Change Minds and Drive Innovation

About this book

Discover how great leaders draw out the best of human nature.

The dilemma. Our Stone Age brains are hardwired for survival and programmed to fear the unknown, yet the work world demands constant innovation. The enemy of better leadership is uncertainty deeply buried in the minds of your workforce.

The solution. In Certainty, Mears offers the answer: understand human nature. Work with it rather than pushing against it. Mears draws on neuroscience and psychology—plus compelling stories from his career—to offer practical leadership advice, including:

• Entertaining, science-backed explanations of how our brains think and how our primitive brains are colliding with the demands of the modern workplace

• New feedback, change management, and delegation tools to build an environment of certainty rather than of fear

• Fresh insights to overcome innate change resistance in yourself and others

• Time-saving ideas to empower yourself while empowering your employees

The results. You want loyalty, trust, and great performance from your team. We all do. With Mears's guidance, you can identify the limitations and strengths of the human mind and create a dynamic and innovative workplace.
