Developed a highly effective coaching model.

Brain-Based Coaching has been shown to bring participants to insights in 8 out of 10 interactions. This is possible due to the scientific underpinnings of the program, built on Dr. David Rock’s original research on insight generation. Over 25,000 professionals have learned to coach others with this model since 1998.

The NeuroLeadership Summit has been a groundbreaking event since 2007.

Since its inception, the annual NeuroLeadership Summit has had over 250,000 attendees since its first meeting in Italy. It was one of the first conferences to go virtual and global in 2020, operating as an almost round-the-clock, worldwide learning event since.

Brought neuroscience to leadership development, learning, and change.

With a transformative article in 2006 called “The Neuroscience of Leadership”, NLI has since led the world in bringing real neuroscience to improve the way organizations approach leadership development, organizational learning, and change.
