Leading Without Authority through NeuroLeadership & Agile Practice
Details
Get ready for a fast‑paced, brain‑powered session with Marina Martin, an Agile and NeuroLeadership expert who helps teams unlock influence long before they ever gain formal authority. In today’s complex, cross‑functional workplaces, leaders rarely have the luxury of hierarchy—so Marina shows how to lead through clarity, connection, and the science of how people actually think and behave.
Marina’s approach fuses neuroscience, Agile ways of working, and behavioral design to help teams solve problems faster, collaborate more effectively, and create environments where people naturally want to follow their lead. She’ll break down what happens in the brain during pressure, conflict, and change—and how small shifts in language, structure, and interaction can dramatically increase your impact.
Participants will walk away with simple, practical techniques they can use immediately to build trust, reduce resistance, and influence outcomes without relying on title or authority. Expect insights that are grounded in science, delivered with energy, and tailored for real‑world team dynamics.
If you want to lead with confidence—even when you’re not “in charge”—this session will give you the tools to do it.
Agenda:
- 5:30-5:45 p.m. CST socializing and networking
- 5:45-7:00 p.m. CST Marina's presentation
