He works with organizations to harness the power of neuroscience to shift mindsets, break through limiting beliefs, and create sustainable high performance.In this episode, Larry explains the crucial difference between the brain and the mind, why predictability can actually work against leadership growth, and how to identify and replace the beliefs that hold you back. You’ll learn about neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to change—and how to apply practical “brain hacks” to transform your thinking and your results.In the extended episode, Larry dives deeper into applying these insights in everyday leadership, including how to coach teams through change and build a culture of mindset mastery.Podcast Plus members get access to the extended episode, guest bonuses, and more.
