Dominique Beck - How can neuroscience help your business?

How can neuroscience help your business?

Dominique Beck


This presentation will enlighten NBBS members about the latest insights from neuroscience and what this means for business. You will find out that this knowledge is not only intriguing but also very practical when managing others or when dealing with clients.

NBBS members will hear about:


- Neuroscience: How the brain works

- Why you want to apply this knowledge in business
- Specific brain based strategies to use with staff and clients

Dominique presents insights from neuroscience research in a very hands-on, practical way. Her goal is to inspire business owners, managers and leaders to work with others in ways that will really bring about positive results. Once we understand how our brain works, we realise our amazing potential - it is about learning how to tap into that, for our own benefit and the benefit of others.  


Dominique has two special coaching offers for NBBS members: one for group coaching and one for individual coaching sessions.



About Dominique:


Dominique's coaching philosophy is based on knowing that we can optimise our thinking in order to maximise our performance - in the areas of leadership, personal and work performance, interpersonal skills and goal achievement. Coaching is neither only for athletes nor is it a random meeting over a cappuccino: It is a science-based art - nurturing possibilities to create realities.


Dominique is an experienced neuroscience-based coach and trainer. She works with people one on one, with leaders as well as management teams, specialising in leadership, personal and work performance, interpersonal skills and goal achievement. She has an innate capacity to surface deeper issues, facilitated with rigorous technical skills. Through a clearly structured, strategic and solution-focused process, clients optimise their thinking for improved performance as leaders, (business) partners and human beings.

Dominique has a multi-disciplinary academic background and worked as a research consultant in private and public sector organisations. The focus on this work was on organisational effectiveness, workplace flexibility and more. She is involved in teaching 'Leadership in Management' at Macquarie University and does pro bono mentoring.

The coaching approach that Dominique uses is based on neuroscience, ie how the brain works. She blends that with Crucial Conversations, Non-Violent Communication, Psychodrama and Energy Psychology. Dominique is enrolled in a postgraduate certificate on the neuroscience of leadership.
