Speaking Engagements
John Medina has the rare gift of making brain science fun and accessible. He is an extraordinary speaker -- perhaps one of the most energetic and engaging speakers you will ever encounter. And he has a message that every leader needs to survive and thrive.
In a keynote presentation or dynamic workshop, Medina guides you through his 12 Brain Rules, things you should know about how the brain works. With fascinating stories and his characteristic sense of humor, he'll explain:
- why multi-tasking is a myth—and what happens when you try to drive and talk on the phone at the same time
- that every employee, every student, and every customers’ brain is wired differently
- how exercise, sleep, and stress affect the brain at work or school
- just what makes PowerPoint presentations so very boring
- that we have a Jennifer Aniston neuron. Really.
- and much more!
Medina tailors each presentation to the needs of his audience.
