• 24. Wired to grow: how neuroscience changes the way we learn and lead with Dr. Britt Andreatta

  In this podcast, Jeanne and Dr. Britt Andreatta take you into the world of neuroscience and how it transforms our understanding of learning and leadership. They discuss how our brains get bored quickly and emphasize the importance of short, interactive learning blocks. Meaning-making is crucial; participants need to see how the skills they learn practically help them. Making mistakes is allowed, provided there is psychological safety, so teams can grow and learn from their experiences.

• 22. Advice & Feedback: Critics, Coaches, or Cheerleaders: Who's Really Helping You Grow

  Imagine if every piece of advice you've ever received came with a "best before" date or a truthfulness rating. 🌟 From the gems that push you to greatness to the ones that make you wonder if you're secretly being pranked, navigating advice can feel like trying to find a needle in a haystack... while blindfolded.The Avalanche of Unsolicited WisdomEver felt bombarded by advice from all corners, including from people you're pretty sure don't even know your last name? It's like everyone's suddenly an expert on your life, career, and whether you should be drinking oat milk or almond milk for optimum health.The Three Crucial Questions to Ask YourselfBefore taking any advice to heart, consider: Does this person genuinely care about me, or are they just enjoying the sound of their own wisdom? Do they actually have expertise in what they're advising on, or did they just watch a documentary last night? And crucially, do they understand my situation, or are they giving me advice meant for a reality TV show contestant?Check the blog about this podcast:https://www.brainbakery.com/brainsnacks-en/advice-feedback-critics-coaches-or-cheerleaders-whos-really-helping-you-growStill hungry?Nom nom… have a nibble on our Brain Snackshttps://www.brainbakery.com/brainsnacks

• 21. The Zeigarnik Effect: Transforming Learning with the Power of Unfinished Tasks

  Does this sound familiar? When you start working on a task but do not complete it, you keep thinking about the  unfinished work and have the urge to go back even if you are doing something else?  You are reading a book...and you can't out it down until you get to the end of the chapter? Finishing that level on your favourite video game, before switching off?What is that? It's a psychological phenomenon named after Bluma Zeigarnik, a Lithuanian psychologist who first studied it in the 1920s.  The Zeigarnik Effect!By understanding how our brains respond to incomplete tasks, we unlock powerful strategies to motivate learners to reach the finish line. Soap operas and serialised dramas already use the  Zeigarnik effect. For example, an episode may end, but the story is clearly not over. These “cliffhangers” leave viewers eager to see what happens next, and thanks to the Zeigarnik effect, they will be motivated to come back and watch the next episode to find out.How you can apply this? Well Jeanne shares in the episode how to beat this and how to use it in for learning and development (L&D), keeping the NMBL journey alive!
