I have been quite intrigued by the intersection of neurosciences and management / leadership lately. It all started on the Organizations Change Practitioners community on LinkedIn. No disrespect for the other groups I’ve joined, but it probably is the one I find the most inspiring amongst the ones I’ve joined. Luc Galoppin, Bill Braun and Jennifer Frahm are making a fantastic job moderating it. Jen twitted this article about Neuroscience and Change Management that got my attention. A link leading to another, I’ve ended up discovering the SCARF model by David Rock and this has opened my eyes to the topic.
I have also been reading and viewing other related materials. This article comes as some sorts of wrap-up of this research work. I have been discussing about Social Business Vs Social Status lately, looking for solutions. Well, Social Neurosciences may just prove to bring the required tools to address this. If you are interested in bringing conscious awareness to otherwise non conscious processes, then read further (be warned it’s a long one) …ĭavid Rock is the CEO of Results Coaching Intl, a consulting company based in Australia. He coined the term ‘NeuroLeadership’ and co-founded the NeuroLeadership Institute, a global initiative bringing neuroscientists and leadership experts together to build a new science for leadership development. The massive contribution of people such as David Rock is to bring real neuroscience works and studies to the table of management and leadership. Not only does the author provides popularization of complex studies but he also packages those into an easy to understand (and to apply !) model. In other word : David Rock contributes to transforming management and leadership from business disciplines to proper sciences through actionable principles. This is an invaluable contribution.Īs John Barbuto states in his article about Change Management Neuroscience : Haven’t people who’ve been doing organizational change been using science, such as science from psychology? Yes. That science proceeds based on using scientific tools to look at behavior itself. What is new is that we are now looking at the origins of behavior in the brain.
The SCARF paper (first published in 2008) draws on extensive social neuroscience studies to propose a simple framework. In a nutshell, social neuroscience studies how and which parts of the brain react to different types of stimuli related to social interactions. At the very heart there are two overarching principles. First, our motivation driving social behavior is governed by the will to minimize threat and maximize reward.
Second, social needs are treated in much the same way in the brain as the primary needs such as food and water. This is an obsolete model of the brain but as Marty Rossman said in this fascinating presentation (at 29 mins) it is good enough for non-scientists to understand the basic structure of the human brain and the structural consequences on social neurosciences.
