When we understand ourselves, we find it easier to understand and lead others. Neuroscience is an important field of study, focusing on the brain and its impact on our behavior and cognitive functions. David Rock, a neuroscientist and expert in leadership development, created a model to provide a framework of how the brain processes our interactions and collaborations with others. It's called the SCARF model. Insight from this research enables managers and leaders to exhibit more adaptive behaviors based on how mental experiences occur over time. Understanding these experiences leads to improved capacity to understand your own behavior and that of others too.
