Because Jane Ransom loves success, she’s also downright fond of failures. How’s that? Failures, you see, can be alchemized into greater success—using not magic but brain science. Organizations and individuals often get so spooked by the experience or prospect of making mistakes that they fall into a paralysis of resisting change. That’s just one reason why Jane provides Self-Intelligence™ coaching, training and speaking to help her clients move forward with sound strategies and unstoppable momentum. The recent discovery of neuroplasticity means that continuous improvement—i.e., ongoing positive change—is not only possible, it’s mandatory for us to thrive. But here’s the deal: On our heroic trek up Success Mountain, we’re sometimes going to stumble. What researchers now know is that those temporary “mistakes” can be our greatest teachers AS LONG AS we resist the impulse to shame or berate ourselves (or others). Yep, this is not only welcome news, it’s rigorously proven brain science. So for example, one thing companies can do to move forward faster is to stop trying to motivate anyone through excessive fault-finding and instead use the science of praise to boost engagement, productivity and retention. But here again, the latest research offers some surprising finds, for it turns out praise can be wildly effective—or just the opposite—and some of the most effective brain rules around praise are highly counterintuitive. Being both science nerd and trained communicator, Jane synthesizes all this research into simple but powerful takeaways that you can use to up-level yourself and your organization. Through virtual and in-person coaching, facilitating and speaking, Jane serves clients in the United States, Canada, Europe and the East. She’s known for her cutting-edge model of Self-Intelligence™, her dynamic storytelling and her ability to catalyze change. All her presentations are experiential, meaning that people learn through participating in science-proven exercises which also happen to be fun. In her five-part Self-Intelligence™ model, Jane weaves together disparate threads of research—from neuroscience, psychology, behavioral economics and more—so that she can lead clients through a robust, sustainable and invigorating process of change. She offers presentations on such topic as: • Get Out of Your Way!: Using the Self-Intelligence™ Model to Become Unstoppable • Don’t Tell Them You’re a Leader: Master the Art (and the New Brain Science) of Influence using Self-Intelligence™ • Stop Herding Cats: How to use Self-Intelligence™ to Turn Under-Enthused Employees into Engaged Achievers Find out more about her, and check out clients’ enthusiastic testimonials, at janeransom.com.
