Hyperefficient: Optimize Your Brain to Transform the Way You Work
About the talk
Physician, researcher and author, Dr. Mithu Storoni advocates for a new, hyperefficient way of working. The work that matters most in our technology-dominated workplace – generating brilliant ideas, solving complex problems, and learning – can’t be manufactured like outputs on an assembly line. Our brains function like a car’s engine, with multiple gears that put the brain in optimal mode for different mental challenges – to create, solve and learn. She has given TEDx talks and has been featured in podcasts such as The goop Podcast with Gwyneth Paltrow.
Dr. Storoni's research focuses on how stress at work impacts the brain's networks, and how this affects motivation, emotions and productivity.

With the hyper-accelerated pace of this world, how can we change our work patterns – and the way we use our brains – to become hyperefficient?
Dr. Mithu Storoni delves into how the right mental gear can nudge you toward optimal brain performance. "Efficiency now means producing as much as you can of a quantity, but hyperefficiency is about producing quality," and to produce excellence, she says, you need to work according to the innate rhythm of the human brain.
Despite the growing awareness of aligning the circadian rhythm with our physiology, people often fail to mold their schedules to the brain's natural rhythms. Proposing a balanced approach to maximize output without burnout, Dr. Storoni combines neuroscience, time management and personal well-being strategies to create a customized recipe for controlling your own gear and reaching a higher personal level of brain performance.
