About the Author :
Amy Brann studied medicine at University College London during which time she became passionate about training people in leadership and communication skills. Realising that a lot of the material available was very surface level in its approach, she left medicine to find a discipline that gave added depth. Neuroscience was that discipline. Through her business, Synaptic Potential, Amy works with many companies to help them better understand their teams, clients and organisations as a whole. Amy is the creator of the successful online community, 'Neuroscience in Business'.

If you want to massively increase your self-awareness, devise strategies for positive change and, as a result, lead a happier and more fulfilled life then I recommend that you read this book." "This book is full of great stuff, like a delicious Pret recipe your brain needs nutritious food and new knowledge to grow." "The most misunderstood organ in the human body is the brain.

"Make Your Brain Work was essential bedtime reading for a couple of nights, and I have found the concepts genuinely very interesting and thought provoking, and a challenging read. It really does become a manual for trying to better understand what influences and motivates others, and how these issues need to be better understood and harnessed. It is not often that the concept of "overwhelm" can be introduced into morning discussions of premiership football and office politics but it is now." "The idea of writing a book relating common workplace and leadership issues with the structure of the brain is excellent. Amy's style is punchy, readable and approachable." "Make Your Brain Work brings neuroscience to life. Explaining how common challenges can be overcome through understanding what is really going on in your brain and the minds of others enables readers to make small changes that can ultimately make life more enjoyable. Easy to read and thoroughly beneficial to implement."
