Learning about the brain changes everything
David Rock
Maria Chase Coaching
My Story
At the age of 20 I spent time travelling as a croupier (yes, a croupier). I was so inspired and awed by people’s limitless potential that I took my first degree in Cultural Geography and Community Development from the University of Exeter.
I initially worked with organisations like Oxfam to help people identify the choices they have and empower them to transform their lives. Frustrated by the many glass ceilings I encountered in community development, I then spent the next 20 years in the education sector.
​
Working in partnership with staff, students and parents, the focus of my work was to find the key to people’s passion, so that motivation easily inspired whatever actions are necessary to reach their desired goals. Drawing from this extensive experience, the transition into the business arena has been fluid and exciting.
Now, being able to influence the influencers, gives me the best opportunity to share this most vital work as widely as possible.
​
As David Rock says, "Learning about the brain changes everything".
Working with people individually, in groups and systemically, introduces the next generation of working practices which align with what we know about how the brain works. These new ways of working maximise creativity, productivity and efficiency. This gives people the opportunity to work less, achieve more and get more enjoyment from their working lives.
What is so satisfying about what I do is that I started off wanting to make peoples lives better, and I now get to share and disseminate the science that makes this possible.
