The world of work has changed forever. Disruption isn’t an event anymore—it’s a constant state. McKinsey calls this the "Era of Perpetual Upheaval," where uncertainty is the new normal. And yet, most leaders and organizations still rely on outdated change management strategies that simply don’t work. The old way of adapting is dead.
So what do we do? We rewire our brains. In this episode, Dr. Bray dives into the neuroscience of uncertainty, uncovering why change triggers survival mode in the brain, and—most importantly—how we can train ourselves to think, respond, and lead differently. We’ll break down the cognitive traps that hold us back, the psychological tools that give us an edge, and the brain-based strategies that separate those who thrive from those who just survive.
If you’re tired of waiting for things to "settle down," this episode is for you. The future belongs to those who master uncertainty—not fear it.
