Ever wonder why certain types of people are fun and easy to be around while other are not? Or, why certain tasks are a breeze to get through while others are difficult and take several hours to complete? Those answers can be found in what part of the brain we use the most.
According to Ned Herrman's book, The Whole Brain Business Book, our brains are divided into four quadrants, not two. Each quadrant produces certain types of thoughts or what loosely can be described as families of mental processes. The part of our brain we use the most produces our likes and dislikes, what we prefer and what we'd rather avoid.
Think of a four-family house that represents the four quadrants of our brain. The upper left apartment is occupied by the Analytical family, the lower left by the Amiable family. The Driver family lives in the upper right and the Expressive family lives in the lower right apartment.
Studies show that the mental preferences of employees, managers, and executives affect their work styles and productivity levels, which ultimately translates into bottom line results.

The higher an executive rises within an organization, the more he or she outgrows the traditional learning opportunities available to executives and managers. Yet, at the upper-echelons of management, the need for learning, development and feedback is greater than ever.
For this reason Dean Newlund and his team of executive coaches are well trained in coaching, business acumen and possess real world experience in working with hundreds of mid to upper level leaders in a wide variety of industries. Through weekly coaching calls or meetings, the executive works on a specifically designed program to help him or her succeed.
