Rewiring Habits: The Science of Lasting Behavior Change
How to Use Habits to Help Leaders Achieve Developmental Goals
Are leaders you work with struggling to achieve their developmental goals? The missing link often lies in developing habits that support goals...
We all know from setting New Year’s resolutions how challenging habits can be! Helping leaders to form new habits is no different.
Equipping leaders to form and embed new habits is one of the most difficult and essential techniques to have in your toolkit. Habits are formed when our neural pathways are rewired. Unless that happens, real and sustainable behavior change just isn’t possible.
You’ll learn:
- Why leaders should define implementation intentions instead of SMART goals
- How neuroplasticity is directly related to learning
- The major motivational drivers and barriers to habit/behavior change
- Why the “10,000 hours of practice rule” and the “70/20/10 ratio” might be urban myths
- An evidenced-based individual change model which you can use to facilitate successful adoption and maintenance of new habits
