Consulting

Have you ever stopped to think about how your ability to learn influences your life and prosperity? Take a moment and consider:

• Your ability to learn during school heavily influences your grades, the quality of your education, and the choices you have for a career.
• Your ability to learn "on the job" has a significant impact on your employment, promotion prospects and overall income or business success.
• While your employment may provide formal training, how much do you remember after weeks or months? The value you get from such training often depends on your personal learning skills.
• As the retirement age increases, you'll need a well-functioning brain over a greater length of time. You can postpone or eliminate degenerative brain diseases and age-related mental decline through continual learning and mental exercise.
• Your natural muscle performance doesn't differ much from the rest of the population. It's how you train and exercise them that make them either strong or weak. In the same way, your natural brain performance does not differ that much from other people as well. It's how you train and use your "brain muscle" that makes a real difference.
• You can improve your athletic performance through many activities. Similarly, you can also improve your mental fitness through many activities. Some are easy, some are more difficult. It's often the more challenging ones that provide the most benefit.
• If you don't take care of your physical fitness, it's more likely that you'll develop physical illnesses and diseases, such as heart disease. Similarly, if you don't take care of your mental fitness it's more likely that you'll develop brain illnesses, such as Alzheimer's disease, or that you'll experience age-related mental decline earlier in life. Both physical and mental fitness can help your body and brain work effectively for a longer period of time.

For better memory and cognitive performance, your brain must work hard. It must be challenged. The challenge lies in defining what knowledge is to be managed, how to prioritize it, understand how and when to make use of skills and how to make the information acquired be easily accessible.

The training is developed and organized according to the needs of the clients (schools, offices, training centers, etc) and works as a tool in knowledge management. Skills must be practiced, and your brain must be exercised like muscles, so they can achieve excellence in performance. How and when it can be done is also explained in the manual, which can be used as the basis of a lecture, workshop, course or class.

As a researcher of human development I dedicate special attention to the varied ways of learning that lead to behaviors and actions in many different fields. The main objective is to make changes, and have knowledge work for people through the development of their skills, perceptions and actions.

The ideas expressed in this work are intended to develop training and learning for people who want to improve their individual requirements necessary to obtain better performance through an overall activation of the brain, especially those parts that help in the learning process. Here are some of the topics provided in the activities proposed in this training:

• Identify how it is possible to learn more and learn better
• Consider the biophysical characteristics (individualities)
• Brain processes
• Sensorial modalities
• Environment preferences
• Social Aspects
• Attitudes and behaviors

A training program that transforms the way your team will learn and work.
