Description
In a world that won’t slow down, your learners are carrying more than just job responsibilities: they’re carrying cognitive overload, constant change, and mental shortcuts that no longer serve them.
This session explores the unspoken side of learning: the thinking habits that sabotage engagement, agility, and retention. You’ll learn to spot six common thinking traps and “untrain” them with REWIRED, a seven-move framework built on Whole Brain® Thinking. Through interactive exercises, you’ll leave with a toolkit you can use right away.
What You’ll Take Away:
In times of uncertainty, better learning starts with better thinking.

Through interactive exercises, you’ll leave with a toolkit you can use right away.
What You’ll Take Away:
- The six thinking traps that quietly block learning, and how to surface them before you teach
- The REWIRED framework, with design questions and prompts to design, audit, or refresh any program
- A way to design for all four thinking preferences, not just your own
- A plan to “untrain” one real program in the next 30 days
In times of uncertainty, better learning starts with better thinking.
