Leadership, experience and emotions

Today morning, in Dr Beverly's class we focused our attention on different leadership styles and how fixed structures and conceptions lead to failure in a context of continuous change.
However, those continuous changes don't mean that we must be innovating all the time, for much more important than implementing rapid changes is to gather people around projects and foster internal commitment in such people. By doing so, we will be able to create stronger organizations prepared to face and overcome new challenges.

In the afternoon  Dr Supriya's class was based on some key concepts depicted in the book "the art of changing the brain". On the basis of biological evidence related to how the brain processes learning we analized some approaches that take such evidence in order to look for effective teaching strategies. As core concepts in those approaches we cannot avoid considering the importance of experience when learning as well as the emotional side of the process.
