The inner workings of the brain can advance or hinder this process. This program will explore implications of current neuroscience research for communication, social interactions, conflict management, and influence. You will gain insight into the science of neuroplasticity, mirror neurons, emotional regulation, decision-making, and creative problem-solving in the context of commercial dispute resolution.
