Did you know that multitasking is actually impossible? We think we can multitask, but really we force our brain to switch between different contexts. Studies also show that the chance of making mistakes increases by 50% and that it can take up to twice as long to perform an action or task when trying to multitask.
Decline in fluid intelligence (our ability to access and use our crystalised intelligence) happens to us all, starting at a younger age than you might expect.
As we collect information through learning and experience, we store this up for application against problems we come across at work and in life, and because we are a problem solving species, when we struggle to solve things, it can affect us psychologically as well as emotionally.
Learning how our brains work and why, and about what we can do about reducing the decline and increasing our brain's resilience to ageing and efficiency, is more important than ever in these days of added stress relating to the impacts of COVID and social isolation, and applying a few techniques, exercises and practices can go a long way to fending off poor mental health and declining performance.
My standard Corporate Mental Health Training, and my Executive Corporate Mental Health Training, provided as online sessions over 6 to 8 weeks, will show you:
- how our brains work in different 'systems' and how it can be exhausted quite quickly,
- how you can apply techniques to optimise the application of the limited resources against the most important problems,
- how to increase attention spans and deal with interruptions more effectively,
- how to deal with impulsive and reactive behaviours, and
- how to extend as well as improve your mental performance
