“Engaged takes contemporary neuroscience theory and applies insights that will equip organisations to be both productive and fulfilling places work. Engaged brains can make all the difference.”

“Amy & Synaptic Potential have some really interesting ideas and approaches to organisational culture and engagement – I look forward to watching them develop even further with practical implementation.”

“Engaged is as inspiring as it is insightful. It’s a fact that an organisation’s culture and strategy dictate business success and it is always the people within organisations that determine the level of that success. Engaged is one of those great books that brings all of that together in such a meaningful way. The book is underpinned with science and practical examples, which can be applied in your organisation right now. It’s time to change the game and bring more meaning back to the workplace. You can start that process today by applying the insights from this fantastic book!”

“In Engaged, Amy Brann writes in her natural, accessible style, allowing Learning & Development professionals to understand and access concepts of neuroscience clearly and with relevance. In our time strapped world, it is so important to have full engagement in the workplace. In a profession which is often perceived to take people’s engagement away from ‘the work’, L&D can benefit with knowing more about creating engaging, less disruptive learning interventions. Engaged talks through how to do that, plus covers the all-important why too, and adds real stories from professionals in the L&D field.

Amy demonstrates, in Engaged, her experience and value to the study and research of neuroscience in a way which relates clearly to a business focus, particularly company cultures and environs. As L&D heads more towards consultative partnering within business rather than transactional course booking, having a better understanding of how to engage with business units and operational managers is of immense benefit. Just as L&D is going through a mindset shift itself, the ideas in this book are pushing the whole of business to evolve better environments and philosophies; that cannot come soon enough, in my opinion.”

“Finally, a simply written and practical guide to ‘what’ and more importantly for us in the HR / L&D world ‘how’ to make sure what we do is brain friendly and keeps our people motivated, engaged and happy at work. This book is loaded with practical quick and long term strategies that you can put into place and enjoy immediate results.”
