Understanding how the brain works

My biggest take aways are understanding how the brain works, no 2 brains are the same and the two mindsets. These components alone would be a minimum to provide to my team.

Anyone would benefit from her smart tips and great workshop

Josie has a very practical and easy approach to self development subjects and neurosciences. She is an amazing woman and speaker and I am convinced that anyone would benefit from her smart tips and great workshop.

She has so much energy and joy for her craft

Josie’s story is amazing. She has so much energy and joy for her craft. I’m so fascinated by her ability to recognise the importance of neuroscience so many years ago. She has inspired me to make some changes in my career.

Inspiring, full of touching moments and motivation

Fantastic session with Josie Thomson at the ‘Crossing Bridges in Coaching’ conference organised by ICF Queensland chapter. Inspiring, full of touching moments and motivation to follow our calling.

I asked Josie to help us to re-shape our Leaders’ Forum

Josie has facilitated a number of sessions for QIC, working with our managers and leaders in QIC’s cultural redevelopment program. Given her previous results, her credibility with staff and the trust she had built across the leadership group, I asked Josie to help us to re-shape our Leaders’ Forum.

Josie played an important role in helping me establish a very different feel to the Forum and the behaviours of participants. As is her style, she was quickly able to get the “buy-in” of participants and establish the rules for the forum which included open, honest and free discussion. This set the scene for some active and robust discussions. Josie’s frank and outcomes orientated approach ensured that the forum delivered tangible outcomes which we are now working through as a group.

From the conceptual to the very practical application

The work on ‘values’ was excellent and took me from the conceptual to the very practical application in my life! Thanks Josie.

You have given me the tools

Josie you are brilliant! Your course today has helped me start to finally find the real me that’s been missing for a very long time. You have given me (with your warmth and experience of adversity) the tools to help me finally gain confidence and belief in myself. Thank you.

What an inspiration you are

Awesome Josie, What an inspiration you are, and I certainly agree with Mikes sentiments.. your teachings are always uppermost in my mind after we started our journey together nearly 17 years ago...Forever grateful.

Thank you so much. This will change my life – it already has!

Loads of Aha moments

I really enjoyed this workshop. I got great clarity on how the brain works and how to change my thinking. I had loads of Aha moments about why I do some things I do and how to change them. Josie is a wonderful and engaging presenter who presented this topic in a really easy to understand way.

A lot of good content

Great presenting (I didn’t get bored!). A lot of content – was good but felt a lot to take in short time. Really enjoyed the science.

A wide range of tools

Josie, thank you. You have done a wonderful job by summarising a wide range of tools in ½ a day. It is a great way to look at myself and address areas of improvement.

Amazing woman and speaker

Josie has a very practical and easy approach to self development subjects and neurosciences. She is an amazing woman and speaker and I am convinced that anyone would benefit from her smart tips and great workshop.

You balance science/facts with a personal journey

Thanks Josie! The presentation was very engaging. I like the way you balance science/facts with a personal journey. It lends credibility and empathy. Very worthwhile!

The best investment in life

Time with Josie is the best investment in life. I always learn something (many things) new and come away feeling positive and armed with a strategy for life.

JOSIE PROVIDES TACTICAL AND PRACTICAL ADVICE TO USE AS SOON AS YOU WALK OUT THE DOOR

I've had the privilege of participating in 2 workshops facilitated by Josie over the last 6 months. Josie provides tactical and practical advice to use as soon as you walk out the door with every person you encounter. Your life understanding and outlook can only improve after a session with her. Elegant, engaging, confronting. Brilliant.

You had the team very engaged, entertained and inspired

Firstly a big thank you Josie for facilitating a very interesting knowledge sharing workshop to our team.

I would think for many of our team this would be the first workshop they have witness where the content was key to each person individually.

You had the team very engaged, entertained and inspired.

What resonated most is the detailed description of the brain and how the different sections of the brain work simultaneously to provoke thoughts and actions.

I am sure you inspired many that you are what you think you are and that everyone has the skills to make change in their life.

So generous with your knowledge and your time

Thanks Josie for being so generous with your knowledge and your time.

Lots of practical and applicable lessons

Josie is fun, inspirational, knowledgeable and free and open with her advice, guidance and tips to help me live my best life. Josie makes a few hours flash by in an instant and I am taking away with me today lots of practical and applicable lessons to help me get what I really want in my life.

JOSIE CONTINUES TO LEAD THE WAY FORWARD IN NEUROSCIENCE LEADERSHIP & COACHING PRACTICES

I have never forgotten the first time I met Josie at QUT where she presented alongside Dr Schwartz. Josie delivered a presentation in regard to the leading information technology about neuroscience which changed my life. Not only is Josie one of those very special people who dedicates her life to help others in a meaningful way... Josie walks the talk and continues to lead the way forward in neuroscience leadership & coaching practices. Josie assists others to build the resilience and self control they need to achieve to reach their full potential using her suite of neuroscience based diagnostic tools. I am now nearing the completion of my Executive Masters in Business Administration and I can see how important it is for leaders to have the right tools in order to be able to negotiate the complexity of the world today. I would encourage others to make contact with Josie. I feel certain that your life with change in many meaningful ways.
