How do thoughts and feelings actually lead us to decisions?
Join Dr. Aron Barbey, head of the Decision Neuroscience Laboratory at the University of Illinois, for an interactive discussion of leading-edge research on the brain. Aron will share findings from a newly released study that mapped where emotional intelligence “lives” in the brain, revealing an important conclusion: our brains are built for emotion and cognition to work together. Learn:
- Why “head versus heart” is false dichotomy.
- How we actually make decisions.
- What the latest science can tell us about improving emotional intelligence.
This is a recording of Dr. Barbey’s webinar, presented March 19, 2013, as part of the eWeek Festival. Here is a list of upcoming emotional intelligence webinars.
