Katie welcomes in Dr. Carlos Davidovich, MD to discuss his book 'Five Brain Leadership: How neuroscience can help you master your instincts and build better teams', which explores the different functions and roles of the five brains in our body (the reptilian brain, emotional brain, rational brain, heart brain, and gut brain) and how recognizing the different brain states will help you effectively communicate better and make better decisions.


Katie's takeaways

  • Leadership is a profession that requires understanding oneself and the different personalities of the people being led.
  • The five brains in our body - reptilian, emotional, rational, heart, and gut - each have specific functions and play a role in decision-making and communication.
  • Recognizing and managing different brain states is crucial for effective leadership.
  • Developing a growth mindset and adaptability quotient is essential for navigating uncertainty and driving success in leadership.
