Preparing experienced professionals and institutions for what comes next.
NextFuture applies neuroscience and brain capital research to help experienced professionals — and the organizations that rely on them — navigate transition before decisions are forced and value is lost.
If you are experiencing decline in fluid intelligence – and if you are my age, you are – it doesn’t mean you are washed up. It means it is time to jump off the fluid intelligence curve and onto the crystallized intelligence curve. Those who fight against time are trying to bend the old curve instead of getting onto the new one. But it is almost impossible to bend, which is why people are so frustrated, and usually unsuccessful.”
