Help us expand access to our science-backed programs. A gift supports building resilience, self-agency and holistic wellness for individuals and within organizations. Shape a brain-healthy future
Most workplaces unintentionally undermine the brainpower they run on. Stress, cognitive overload, and depleted attention erode trust, creativity, and innovation. Discover how brain-healthy work environments—what the World Economic Forum calls a global imperative—unlock performance and well-being.
- Actionable practices grounded in neuroscience to improve team focus, resilience, and decision quality
- Data-backed insights showing how brain-healthy workplaces reduce burnout and deliver up to $12 in ROI for every $1 invested
- A leadership toolkit for building trust-filled, high creativity cultures that adapt faster and outperform peers
STRATEGY THAT SCALES TO EVERYDAY PRACTICE Featuring perspectives from HabLab (Slalom’s internal research lab focused on habits and habitats for the future of work), The Business Collaborative for BrainHealth, Perkins&Wll and MetroCare, this conversation spans science, safety and workforce enablement. You’ll hear how an epidemiologist approaches brain health through a safety lens, how a large clinical organization is operationalizing SMART™ brain health training through a train-the-trainer model and internal Brain Health Champions, and how research partnerships and real-world experimentation help organizations learn what works — and scale it responsibly. This session is ideal for leaders seeking strategic clarity paired with actionable implementation guidance.
In a world shaped by rapid change, mental strain and economic uncertainty, brain health is emerging as one of the most critical — and overlooked — factors in workplace performance and sustainability. Backed by the World Economic Forum’s global call to action, this session helps leaders reimagine the workplace as a brain-healthy ecosystem — where trust, creativity inclusion and well-being aren’t side perks, but core drivers of long-term growth. Attendees participate in a hands-on activity on how brain health, when supported through strategic leadership behaviors, culture design, and intentional rituals, can unlock innovation, reduce burnout, elevate team dynamics, and add real GDP value.
TURNING HUMAN POTENTIAL INTO MEASURABLE RESULTS Leaders from GoMo Health, Slalom’s HabLab, HKS Architects and KepnerCPA reveal how they’re combining human-centered science, advanced technology and strength-based brain health approaches to improve strategic attention, reduce stress and anxiety, and accelerate innovation at scale. Learn how personalized behavioral science solutions are transforming engagement and compliance in maternal health, how chronic workplace stress can be reversed through targeted brain health training, and how organizations like HKS measure brain health improvement and drive significant reductions in multi-tasking. This session is designed for leaders ready to move beyond good intentions and embrace evidence-backed strategies that deliver real, rapid results.
