Chapter 1Brain Sex and Biological Sex

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 1 –15

[The sex of your brain is not necessarily the same as the sex of your body. As with most other biological functions, brain sex is normally distributed—extreme males at one end, extreme females at the other, with varying gradations in between. The surprising, recent discovery has been that brains...

Chapter 2Conditions for Optimal Brain Function

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 17 –28

[Drawing on data about the biological bases of behaviour, notably Schwaab (We Are Our Brains, 2014), this next chapter is how then to release brain power. It moves into sense-making in the brain, perception, epigenetics and consequent behaviour modified by brain-sex, driven by the eight basic...

Chapter 3Survive, Thrive and Flow

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 29 –37

[From an evolutionary perspective, the brain is geared up for survival. To survive there is a primary requirement on its capacity to perceive danger. Many organisations are chronically perfected to create danger signals in the minutiae of defining performance demands. Immense amounts of energy...

Chapter 4Brain Sex-Based Attention and Communication

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 39 –50

[There are some key differences in what male and female brains pay attention to. There are sources of difference that impact attention and communication in the structure and neurobiology of the brain—especially the way it connects information together. Understanding these differences and...

Chapter 5Power, Politics and Pressure

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 51 –62

[Men exist in an essentially competitive world, whereas females seek to inhabit an essentially collaborative one. This chapter considers the impact of testosterone on male behaviour and the role of competition. For women, oxytocin is the key hormone—the bonding hormone that promotes collaborative...

Chapter 6Problem Solvers and Solution Seekers—The Difference Between Intra-compared with Inter-hemispheric Connectivity

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 63 –76

[The typical male brain functions in either the right or the left hemisphere. It is suggested that this creates in men a preference for binary solutions (either/or) and that this is especially productive for problem-solving. Women’s brains, on the other hand, typically function by integrating...

Chapter 7The Beginnings of a New Motivational Theory, from the Engendered Brain

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 77 –84

[Now that it is understood that we are powered by an emotional, rationalising, not rational brain, and that human beings are self-regulating systems, motivational theory must shift from, ‘how can a person be incentivised’ to ‘how can a person’s energies be released and focused organisationally’....
LitStream

Chapter 8The Business Case for Valuing Brain Sex Difference

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 85 –96

[There is accumulating evidence (e.g. Laloux, F., Reinventing Organisations, 2014) of the massive increase in effectiveness of individual contributions within the organisation when the energy of individuals is properly released. This chapter builds on this data to show how the opportunity for...

Chapter 9How to Ignite All the Brains in the Business

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 97 –111

[The tools for turning knowledge about brain sex into effective practices are exemplified. Work practices determine a large part of work culture. This chapter shares frameworks and tools for creating brain-friendly work practices. The frameworks can be used at a micro-level (for example to run...

Chapter 10Exhaustion, Energy and Excellence—The Male/Female Differences

Lanz, Kate; Brown, Paul

Pages: 113 –118

[Human beings are remarkable sources of sustainable energy. The conditions under which exhaustion (burn-out) occurs are explored, in contra-distinction to the circumstances in which energy is productively released and focused. Again, the brain sex differences are central to creating optimal...
