Questions we could be asking:• Can we “design” new training protocols for the brain?• Can we “bypass” mechanical brain circuits; and “install”

new human circuits?• Can we “entrain” elements of a peak performance state

for empathy and understanding?• Can we “hardwire” new mind performance protocols

that facilitate client management and understanding?

What does “Peak Performance Training”mean in the context of client-interactionmanagement?

• Training the brain Emotional Network to sustain clam states

• Training Focus and Alertness to interact with clients

• Training to keep Focus up while keeping Arousal/Stress/Anger down

• Finding the best Focus/Arousal/Attention balance for clientinteractions

• Performing calm client interactions consciously despite environmentalstressors, noise and distractions.

• Being aware of your arousal state in your Peak Performance zone

during client-interactions

Brain & Mind Client Self Awareness Check List(T = True, F = False)

1. I am eager to understand my clients’ situations, suspicions and stress levels .

2. I am free of anger, anxiety and stress when I interact with clients.

3. My client pre-meeting stress is not a problem.

4. My moods are not affected by my client’s response to me.

5. I get enough sleep.

6. My work and life are in balance.

7. My ability to concentrate and recall over extended periods is generally good.

8. I try to suspend judgment of my clients, instead trying to understand andempathise with them.

(Each “True” answer scores 1 point. Scores of 6 or lower indicates you are probably not able to enter your PP zone)6

peak performance zone

Page 8: Peak performance for client interactions via neurofeedback

Winning over anger…• Calm interactions with clients occur when your arousallevels are dependent on your control, and not your clients’responses to you.

• Being in control of your arousal levels should be the goal intraining for peak performance client interactions.

• Having a satisfied client is a side effect of peakperformance within your capabilities zone.

• Increasing the “top of your range zone” happens over timeas you continue peak performance training

Page 9: Peak performance for client interactions via neurofeedback

The Peak Performance Zone• The “Zone” involves a mental state, which includes motivation, attention, focus, centeredness,energized relaxation, and awareness. These are trained and balanced throughneurofeedback

• Additional necessary factors include physical and mental health, appropriate rest, nutrition,relaxation, and freedom from distress

• Neurofeedback helps you to recognise when you are in the “Zone”

• Once the “Zone” is experienced you won’t forget it. Knowledge of it assists inorganising yourself towards getting back into it

• Think of the “Zone” as a balanced mid-point of extremes. On one extreme is very lowactivation such as during sleepy-relaxation with low motivation, which leads to minimalperformance. On the other extreme is extreme arousal, such as during excessive driveand stress, which impairs performance. Finding your balance point leads to the “Zone”

• The “Zone” is an activated, prepared, fully focused state of relaxed, energised,motivated consciousness, in which all other interfering issues disappear.

Background: Neurofeedback and what it doesTwo Components:

• methodology of operant conditioning which changes one’s emotional and mind states and improves performance, and the ability to get “into the zone”

• equipment that monitors and measures the electrical activity ofthe brain and trains the brain to be readily available to life’srequirements

Page 12: Peak performance for client interactions via neurofeedback

Why Neurofeedback Works(Operant Conditioning)

• Brain can change with assistance directed byrewards: light, movement, and sound

• Brain assists in finding best/better approach usingthe newly built brain pathways

• Brain will remain in new state as it “feels better”• Brain is continually used, maintaining “new skill”

Activities that correspond to various brainwave states(should you choose not to train with neurofeedback):

• Delta: get some deep, uninterrupted sleep• Theta: sustain the period before falling asleep• Alpha: deep breathing (Yoga), connect to your body (Yoga again)• SMR: play an individual sport such as squash, badminton• Low Beta: read a non-fiction book (Economist) attentively (speed-

read eye-movements), juggle• High Beta: hike in the dark…note your response to sudden

unknown sounds! Make yourself panic, obsess, get furious• Gamma: do puzzles, play mazes, memory games

What are the work-life implications for Brain Peak Performance Training?

Executives – increased, focused attention & logic; increased problem solving andworking memory capacity; controlled stress with anger levels going down; high

levels of patience

Clients – Satisfaction with processes and interactions with executives, and a

welcome statement for future interactions.

EVERYONE – OPTIMISE POTENTIALS, PEAK PERFORMANCE!
