In the very near future, leaders of the most competitive companies will understand how to apply neuroscience to develop employees who can sustain what is called the "neuro-competitive advantage." A neuro-competitive advantage is an organization filled with people who are:
- Immune to stress and able to sustain peak performance.
- Emotionally intelligent, establishing positive relationships.
- Fully engaged, enthusiastic, and ethical with an unshakably high morale.
All these are neural properties that indicate optimal brain function, achieved through a dynamic shift in attitude. The neuro-competitive advantage is the last sustainable competitive edge. Everything else is just another "best practice."
The attitudinal climate that currently dominates the workplace is the polar opposite of a neuro-competitive advantage. For two decades, research has established that the average American company is debilitated by chronic stress. Chronic stress is "neurotoxic," rendering the brain incapable of sustaining peak performance, high morale, and positive relationships.
Chronic stress represents the way a brain is wired. A specific change in attitude rewires the brain to make a neuro-competitive advantage second nature. It is called "neuroplasticity" and ProAttitude is currently the only program that provides a proven approach to generating this powerful shift. Each of us is capable of making this shift and in a relatively short period of time.
It is simpler than we think and the return on investment is compelling.
