Are you struggling at work? Or do you know someone who is overwhelmed and miserable a lot of the time?
How can we help others and ourselves? Understanding neuroscience behind misery is part of effective coaching. As coaches and leaders, individuals seek our guidance to inspire and navigate them away from misery and it’s our job to understand how.
If you aren’t sure about this subject, we’ve got just the masterclass to equip you with the fundamentals! Join Master certified coach Jean Balfour MCC and learn the neuroscience underpinning our emotional state. You will find practical strategies you can use at work or with our clients to help them find a way out of misery and back to enjoyment of work.
