Whether it’s leading a team, delivering a presentation, coaching an athlete, teaching a class, or raising a child – we devote time every day to passing along knowledge to others.

The problem is, very few of us have ever been taught how to influence effectively. Many of us make simple blunders simply because we don’t understand how the brain takes in information and the essential ingredients required to commit concepts to memory.

In this exciting new book, neuroscientist Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath outlines 12 scientific principles of how people learn and remember. From myths about multitasking to the important role of errors ‐ Jared combines cutting‐edge brain research with proven behavioural science to demonstrate how to impart knowledge in a way that truly sticks with and impacts others.
