Let's get started!
Why neuroplasticity is crucial in psychology.3:35
Neuroplasticity is the underlying theme across every topic in this course. I promise we will not go into details about biology, so don't worry. I have made this topic simple, accessible and useful to anyone without a neuroscience background. I am sure you will enjoy, so let's tackle this together.

Introduction to personality traits16:52
Personality is a well-known topic in psychology. However, there is a lot of theories and frameworks that have not been tested or replicated. In this lecture, I bring you the most reliable personality trait theory used in psychological and behavioural sciences. There are 5 personality traits (The BIG 5) you will be able to identify in clients. It is a helpful method to generate insights as to why people do what they do, especially at work.
How personality affect life outcomes9:06
In this lecture, you will learn how personality traits influence people's social behaviour as well as life outcomes such as health, wellbeing and prefessional success. But, you learn how society shapes your people's personality, but it happens only at a specific stage in life. So, personality is be shaped both by the individual and society.
Introduction to attitude change12:23
Attitudes are key to social interaction as well as to personal and professional success. Change your attitude and you can change the way you view the world around you. In this lecture, you will learn what is an attitude and why we should apply the same definition used by researchers and scientists (hint: because it works!). Let's go through the Theory of Planned Behaviour.
Attitudes and self-efficacy7:35
In this lecture, you will learn how to use a tool to identify your client's self-efficacy. More importantly, how to apply the results to what you learned about attitude change.

Why heuristics are so important9:26
Heuristics and how it affects people's judgement have transformed the way we study human behaviour. There are no random decisions or judgements, we are always making predictions based on our experience and prior knowledge. So, learn how this mental 'rules of thumb' work and how you can support your clients on future decisions.
How to identify and mitigate biases11:37
Why do you always make similar choices? Cognitive biases play a key role in our decision-making process. Learn the most important cognitive biases and how to mitigate them.
Introduction to habit change9:13
Everyone wants to acquire new habits, such as becoming more productive. However, only a few people know what a habit really is. So, in this lecture, we go through the basics before learning how to create new habits.
Understanding habit layers10:13
Have you ever wondered why most people fail at their new year's resolution? In this lecture, you will learn how to transform the way you think about new habits. This is one of the most exciting lectures because you can put into practice immediately, both for you and for your clients. Let's get started!
Creating new habits11:06
In this lecture, I will guide you through the habit loop, by James Clear, which allows you to create a new habit step-by-step. You will be able to apply this technique with your clients using simple and reliable information.

Bonus Lecture: Introduction to stress15:20
Stress is, by far, one of the biggest challenges executives and professionals face on a daily basis. Stress can make everything more difficult and it can even make people suffer from mental illnesses. In this lecture, I will take you through what is stress, why it is vital for our survival, and therefore, it will never go away. But, I will also explain how to think about stress and how to mitigate its negative effects.

Description

Do you want significant and faster results with your clients? Do you feel like you need to understand how your client's mind work?

Psychological science is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour. It provides us with reliable information and tools to understand, predict and change behaviour. However, most coaching courses don't offer psychology or neuroscience as part o their curriculum. As a result, coaching professionals are left with little, if any, basic knowledge on how the mind works. So, it's not a surprise why so many career coaching professionals are unsuccessful.

After learning from world-renowned scientists and professors at the University of Cambridge, I have decided to share what I have learned. I have carefully designed this course to address challenges faced by executive/career coaching and self-development professionals. Some of these challenges include:

- Increasing productivity

- Adjusting to transitions

- Managing stress

In this exciting and easy-to-follow course, you will learn topics such as personality types, attitude change, forming habits, heuristics as the key to decision-making and much more. You will also have access to tools and questionnaires that allow you to understand your client's behaviour and decisions (backed by science).

I will continue to update this course with topics relevant to professionals like yourself. You will stay up-to-date with the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, useful to you. I want your clients to see significant and faster results, and therefore, feel satisfied with your work.

Let's get started.
