SESSION DESCRIPTION

Every HR professional knows that good business outcomes and strong relationships are grounded in two crucial perceptions: respect and trust.  And yet, those two words are not linked to HR nearly enough.  It's time we transform the world's perception of HR: from cop to collaborator, from risk-averse sheriff to trusted advisor.  This powerful, informative, practical and inspirational talk by Gregg Ward introduces recent discoveries in neuroscience that demonstrate that respect and trust are not the result of logical, cognitive thinking, but rather stem from unconscious, gut-level reactions generated deep inside of our primitive emotional brains.  Gregg then details the key behaviors that drive respectful trusting relationships and provides practical, invaluable concepts and techniques for generating respect and trust. This "high energy, high insight" program that Gregg has customized and delivered to audiences all over the world is an inspirational and actionable breath of fresh air for everyone who courageously serves in HR.
