If HR doesn't align its practices with insights from neuroscience, the organization will:

  • Suffer from low employee performance due to lack of understanding of what triggers threat responses.
  • Fail to positively affect engagement due to lack of understanding of how the brain generates reward responses.
  • Not view HR as a strategic partner that can provide new insights on current practices.

Linking neuroscience insights with HR practices leads to many organizational benefits, such as:

  • Understanding how to counteract the negative effects of some common business practices that can elicit threat responses from employees.
  • Increasing learning retention, productivity, innovation, and engagement.
  • Designing effective HR practices within the organization, thereby gaining credibility and influence with stakeholders.
