JOIN JOHN KOTTER AND BRUCE HALLAS AS THEY DISCUSS:
The importance of having time for reflection in order to bring about clarity of thought. Clarity is the door to creativity, curiosity, innovation, and ultimately, change. We have two systems operating at a subconscious level - Survival Mode, a system developed over time to help us identify and respond to threats quickly in order to to ensure survival. Thrive mode, which is the brain’s system for recognising opportunity and is most likely responsible for our species emerging from the Savannah and from caves.
