Organizational Neuroscience

After introducing the field of organizational neuroscience, the collection proposes a theoretical framework for locating neural processes appropriately within the wider context of organizational cognitive activities, considers the value of neuroimaging technologies for organizational research, and applies the opposing-domains hypothesis to task positive network and default mode network thinking. The findings of neurological scanning indicate that effective leaders can be distinguished neurologically, and neurofeedback techniques show promise as a new tool for developing leadership qualities in managers and business students. Six of the 12 chapters are co-authored by the editors.
