Trailer for #2: Change, Neuroscience and the Law - with Dominique Ashby

Welcome to Episode #2: the first of the Law Life Balance podcast interview episodes, with Dominique Ashby. Dominique is a former lawyer turned change specialist and the founder of neuro@work, where she uses her expertise in neuroscience (having studied an MA at Cambridge University) to help organisations (including law firms) increase operational agility and resilience in a cost-effective, sustainable way. Her mission is to take the headache out of change for organisations and realise the full value-add for D&I of putting humanity at the heart of the workplace.

In this episode, Dominique and I will be discussing (amongst many other things!):

The key pressure points in the legal industry 
The value of purpose-driven people and environments 
How to create a culture of change and how our brains deal with change physiologically 
Blockers and facilitators of change 
Key leadership skills and traits 
Psychological safety in the workplace

If you want to find out more about Dominique’s incredible work, you can send her a message on LinkedIn or email her at: [email protected] (though don’t be surprised by the automated response you will receive - more details in the episode)!
