Lake Lure, NC (PRWEB) June 30, 2015 -- Herrmann International announces the release of The Whole Brain® Business Book, Second Edition: Unlocking the Power of Whole Brain Thinking in Organizations, Teams and Individuals (McGraw-Hill), a fully revised and enhanced edition of Ned Herrmann’s classic guide to applying what we know about the brain to improve business results. With updated research and new case examples, charts, action steps and exercises, the second edition gives readers a comprehensive roadmap for putting their whole brain to work to meet the challenges of 21st century business.

A treasure trove of practical tips on how to apply Whole Brain® Thinking at work...and a must-read for everyone who wants to apply their whole selves in whatever they do. – Jim Kouzes, coauthor of The Leadership Challenge

“When the first edition came out, it opened up a lot of people’s eyes to how they could better use their brains at work,” says author Ann Herrmann-Nehdi, CEO of Herrmann International and daughter of the late Ned Herrmann. “Now the brain is getting plenty of well-deserved attention, particularly in the business and learning communities, but as my father always emphasized, what matters is practical application. With this update, I believe we’ve stayed true to that vision and expanded on it, with new ways to apply your whole brain to stay ahead of change, get more creative and outthink the competition.”
 
In addition to incorporating the latest developments in brain research, the second edition includes new in-depth analysis as well as business and career advice based on Herrmann International’s extensive database of Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI®) profiles, representing the thinking preference data of more than two million people around the world, across industries and functions.

“Ann has done a masterful job of updating Ned’s original work by including contemporary neurological perspective on brain functioning while connecting this to the latest thinking on human performance, interpersonal effectiveness and organizational design,” says Dr. Mark Schar, senior researcher and lecturer at the Center for Design Research at Stanford University’s School of Engineering.

The second edition also provides readers with real-world examples from companies like Microsoft, IHG, IBM, Caesars and numerous others that are applying the concepts of Whole Brain® Thinking to leverage their cognitive diversity, build the agility of their global leaders, manage change and complexity, and innovate faster and more efficiently.

“This book is rich in ah-ha moments and a treasure trove of practical tips on how to apply Whole Brain® Thinking at work, home and in the community,” says Jim Kouzes, coauthor of The Leadership Challenge. “This is an extraordinary performance, a tour de force and a must-read for everyone who wants to apply their whole selves in whatever they do.”

The Whole Brain Business Book, Second Edition: Unlocking the Power of Whole Brain Thinking In Organizations, Teams and Individuals, is available through Amazon.com and other retailers. Download a sample chapter.
