Effective Brain Smart Skills For Workplace Productivity

Research has shown that the "normal" human brain has a much larger ability and potential than we think. Yet the one potent resource which each of us readily possess is by no means fully tapped or developed. In the last 10 years, we have discovered more about our brain especially in the area of Memory and Thinking. The increased awareness of brain dementia has prompted people to learn how to strengthen their power to recall.

Tony Buzan, the biggest name in memory and the originator of Mind Maps®, has helped millions of people around the world reframe their thinking processes and self belief to achieve success. His latest memory techniques gathered from world class thinkers and memorisers, will enable you to apply your recall power at the workplace. Tony is the founder of the World Memory Championships which has recently seen a record of 32 countries and 120 Mental Athletes and Arbiters participating in the 22nd World Memory Championships.

People are the only real resource in any organizations. Hence the task of developing the employees’ mental skills would be of utmost importance to both the individual and the Company. This workshop helps participants enhance their thinking and remembering skills, to further improve their short and long term memory and discover the brain’s amazing capabilities, learning the "natural" ways of tapping into their mental powerhouse.
