Chapter 42 in Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Neuroscience and Management, 2026, pp 146-149 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This entry explores how integrating neuroscience into human resource learning and development can transform organizational learning, leadership, and change management. Drawing on insights into neuroplasticity, cognition, and emotion, it demonstrates how brain-based approaches enhance employees’ critical thinking, problem-solving, and emotional intelligence. The study emphasizes that HR strategies grounded in neuroscience foster stronger workplace relationships, improve adaptability to change, and cultivate a growth-oriented mindset. By aligning training and development practices with the brain's natural learning mechanisms, organizations can create resilient, innovative, and high-performing workforces in an increasingly dynamic business environment.
