Hanni Berger on the Voice in Your Head, LEADERSHIP Development Day 2021

Hanni Berger opens with a simple question, what do you want to be known for, then explains why the chatter in your head so often works against that answer. Using two short imagination exercises, a car cutting you off on a Friday drive and a grocery store line, she shows the difference between being the voice in your head and observing it. She walks through how the subconscious gets programmed in the first six to seven years of life, why researchers say we react from that programming most of the time, and how ordinary moments, even a comment from her own dentist, can trigger a four year old reaction in a grown adult. Her practical takeaway for leaders is to stop when a negative emotion shows up and become the observer of your own thoughts. Recorded at LEADERSHIP Development Day 2021.
