The Neuroscience of Decision-Making:
Dr Jack Lewis helped Deloitte add £100 million to its bottom line with a talk on the neuroscience of decision-making for the team that pitched for the global Tesco Auditing business. As a result, he was invited to share these insights with Central European teams in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Once audiences understand how brains make decisions, it is much easier to get a client to make the decision you need them to make. This talk is extremely popular with finance and sales teams.
Science of Innovation:
Dr Jack Lewis helps audiences foster a culture of creativity through his Science of Innovation talk.
He shares evidence-based insights into strategies that genuinely boost creative problem-solving and others that, while hugely popular, don’t work, like brainstorming. This talk is often paired with a 30-minute interactive session that runs delegates through a scientifically valid method of creative ideation that Jack Lewis calls The Brain Shake – invaluable for creative firms.
Jack Lewis – Technology on the Brain:
Jack’s talks on Building Resilience and Technology on the Brain are always well received.
Dr Jack discusses how to get the most out of tech without falling prey to the pitfalls of overuse. He also highlights the weaknesses of genAI and the need for humans to double-check everything.
The tech giants have been overhyping what genAI can do, which is making everyone terrified that they won’t have jobs this time next year.
Jack’s talk helps audiences understand that, in most cases, that won’t be true, so long as they understand what genAI is good at and bad at. It also gives them practical guidance on how to future-proof their brains.
Jack Lewis also presents the speech and workshop, Sort Your Brain Out.
Dr Jack also puts together bespoke talks. For example, a talk on Unconscious Bias for the National Trust, which wanted to understand how they could create marketing materials that appealed to a broader segment of the British public.
