How We Think and Behave: The Power of Scripts and Schema

The Big Sweat Interview with Dr Simon Raybould

Join Dave Algeo aboard "Sprout 1" and take another journey into your inner world where mind, meaning and metaphor collide.

This episode is a 'Big Sweat' interview and Dave is joined by Dr Simon Raybould, former research scientist who now specialises in helping people have more impact in life and work. In the episode we explore how the mind works and why it relies on 'schema' and 'scripts' to automate much of our thinking and behaving. More importantly, how can we use this knowledge to tap into our brain and shift our thinking and behaviour to support our goal striving.

Simon started his life as a research scientist, looking at the causes of childhood leukaemia. Eventually he became centre manager at the UK's largest social science research unit but he's also been a lighting designer for dance companies, an author, playwright and actor... and a fire eater.

Simon is currently daring people to take the 69stories challenge. Find out more at - presentationgenius.info/69
