How Not To Think

"People aren't logical, they're psychological with the emphasis on the psycho," writes Dr Howard Rankin. An expert in cognitive neuroscience, Howard recently published his book I Think Therefore I Am Wrong which looks at the many ways we can sabotage our thinking through cognitive biases, binary thinking, false assumptions and numerous other strategies. The How Not To think podcast examines how this false reasoning manifests itself in many areas of society through myths, and 'conventional wisdom.' Howard speaks with leaders in their fields to examine the impact of faulty thinking that occurs in every sphere of life.

Jennifer Thornton has developed her expertise in Talent Strategy & Leadership Development over her exciting 20+ year career as an HR Professional. She’s led international teams across Greater China, Mexico, the U.K., and the U.S. to expand into new markets, managing brands and franchise businesses.

Running a high-performance team always boils down to two things: Adopting a “Perfect-Fit” hiring process and developing each hire according to his or her own individual and job-specific talent gaps.

The Organizational Analysis and Design (OAD) Assessment replaces them all with the highest validated hiring tool of its kind on the market.

Armed with OAD, our clients are able to accurately predict whether a candidate will be the right fit for a given role. Once the candidate is hired, OAD provides a lifecycle coaching methodology that follows the candidate through their entire career with the company, providing tailored, personalized recommendations and development techniques that are uniquely suited to fill that candidate’s gaps.

Jennifer is the founder of 304 coaching.
