How Evolved Leaders Are Winning The War For Talent

Are you losing the war for talent?

There’s a massive demographic worker shortage looming and the competition is getting fiercer. And the expectations of employees have also radically changed – demanding much more than a paycheck.

  • Higher employee turnover
  • Inability to attract top talent

The competition for talent is not some “soft” issue. It is the brutal reality blocking your company’s growth.

But what if you could:

  • Understand our deep human need for tribal belonging?
  • Discover the mechanisms by which any group can reliably be bonded?
  • Create powerful initiation experiences that produce loyalty and excellence?

Well, you can!

Evolutionary psychology expert and bestselling author Tim Ash takes you on a provocative tour through our distant past to upgrade your modern workplace.

Tapping the unconscious to move people to action
Drop a rock. It falls and hits the ground.

Once you understand brain evolution, many of our decisions will become easily predictable. To a scary degree, we are walking robots with knee-jerk responses, and not the rational geniuses with free will that we like to imagine.

What if you understood how the brain really makes decisions, and could consistently influence it? In this dynamic keynote, bestselling author and neuromarketing expert Tim Ash will teach you key strategies for influencing the primitive and irrational parts of the brain that are really in charge of our actions.  You’ll learn how to tap powerful universal motivations and automatic responses to deliver your marketing message on-target every time. 

Walk away with a new perspective on the brain, and several durable and practical strategies for ethically influencing your audience.

Are you ready to be inspired?
