One Sure-Fire Way to be a Better Leader An interview with Jessica Payne, Ph.D, Harvard Medical School and University of Notre Dame
Jessica Payne can guarantee better performance at work. No, she's not pitching a new management tool or trying to drum up sales for a game-changing product. She just wants you to sleep.
That's right. Sleep.
Payne is a neuroscientist who runs the Sleep, Stress and Memory Lab at Notre Dame and studies the effects of sleep (or lack of sleep) on the brain. She's found that sleep sets the brain up for crucial functions the next day. Not surprisingly, better cognitive functions boost your impact at work.
Payne is currently working with CCL to help understand how current brain research might influence leadership development. She recently spoke with us about the power of sleep.
