The role of brain-to-brain synchrony in collective performanceJay Van Bavel
This study examined whether brain-to-brain synchrony predicts group performance on problem-solving tasks. 44 groups of 4 participants completed problem-solving tasks either as a team or individually while wearing mobile EEG headsets. Neural synchrony was higher among teams compared to individuals. Importantly, greater neural synchrony among team members predicted better group performance on the tasks. However, how tightly knit a group felt did not predict their performance. These findings suggest that brain-to-brain synchrony may underlie effective group collaboration.
What makes mindfulness training provided by an employer sustainable for an in...Cranfield University
This document summarizes a research study investigating what makes mindfulness training provided by employers sustainable for individuals over time. The study will conduct interviews with employees who received mindfulness training 3-24 months prior through their employer to understand their experiences practicing mindfulness after the training completion and what factors helped or prevented sustained practice. The expected results are to identify the "bottleneck variable" - the most constraining factor in sustaining mindfulness training - from among motivation, ability, and opportunity. Understanding this can help improve employer-provided mindfulness training programs.
This document summarizes a study on the effects of a strengths intervention training on employee well-being. The training was designed to help participants identify and develop their strengths over a 4.5 hour session. The study used a sample of 129 working adults and measured outcomes like positive affect, life satisfaction, and burnout before and after the intervention. The results showed that the strengths training increased participants' positive affect and psychological capital, but did not significantly impact life satisfaction, work engagement, or burnout. The conclusions were that focusing on strengths can enhance general well-being and psychological resources, but may not directly influence work-related forms of well-being. Limitations included the convenience sample and size of training groups.
Cross-Cultural Psychological Capital, Occupational Stress and Organizational ...Emmanuel Segui
This study examines the relationship between psychological capital (PsyCap), occupational stress, and organizational socialization in a cross-cultural context. It hypothesizes that: 1) PsyCap will moderate the relationship between diversity (mono vs multi-cultural groups) and stress, 2) PsyCap will moderate the relationship between diversity and socialization, and 3) stress will negatively impact socialization. To test this, participants will be assigned to mono- or multi-cultural groups and complete a task. PsyCap, stress, and socialization will be measured before and after. Results will be analyzed using ANOVA to understand the impact of PsyCap on stress and socialization across cultural contexts. Findings could help organizations implement Psy
Action Science is an approach that aims to improve organizational effectiveness by addressing barriers to change caused by defensive interpersonal relationships and behaviors. It focuses on examining theories of action - the underlying beliefs, values, and mental models that drive behaviors. Leaders are taught to reflect on their own behaviors and challenge underlying assumptions through techniques like productive reasoning and analysis of real workplace experiences. This allows organizations to move from a Model 1 theory of action based on unilateral control and winning to a Model 2 theory that values valid information, informed choice, and internal commitment to change.

This document discusses the five disciplines of a learning organization as outlined in Peter Senge's book "The Art and Practice of a Learning Organization". The five disciplines are: personal mastery, mental models, building a shared vision, team learning, and systems thinking. It provides an overview of each discipline, including how personal mastery involves lifelong learning and commitment. Mental models are deeply held assumptions that influence how we understand the world. Building a shared vision involves translating individual visions into a shared commitment. Team learning occurs when a team's intelligence exceeds the sum of individuals. Systems thinking views problems as interconnected parts of a whole system. The document concludes with implications for employee development and leadership training at Vestechno Group based on these five disciplines.
This document provides a literature review and methodology for a phenomenological study on listening in coaching. Some key points:
1) Despite its importance, there is little research on listening in coaching. The study aims to explore the interpretive nature of listening through coach-client experiences.
2) Literature suggests listening is key to the coaching relationship but provides little detail on the process. Cox's theory of "authentic listening" incorporates misunderstanding to examine perspectives.
3) The study uses interpretative phenomenological analysis to explore how challenges to client perspectives through values, assumptions and emotions shape experiences of being heard. The researcher takes a phenomenological hermeneutic approach to understand meanings in experiences.
The document discusses various models and conceptions of the learning organization. It presents different frameworks for organizational learning, including distinguishing between organizational learning and a learning organization.

Is coaching an ethical disability accommodation for neurodiversityNancy Doyle
Coaching can be an effective accommodation for employees with disabilities by focusing on their strengths. A study examined the impact of coaching interventions for various disabilities like dyslexia, autism, and ADHD. The coaching addressed barriers at the macro, meso, and micro levels and utilized behavioral, psychosocial, emotional, and cognitive techniques. Results from 2015 and 2017 studies found marginal but significant improvements for coached participants compared to controls, with medium effect sizes, suggesting coaching can enhance workplace performance and inclusion for those with disabilities.
To what extent is coaching a reasonable adjustment for dyslexiaNancy Doyle
This document summarizes research on the use of coaching as a reasonable adjustment for dyslexic adults in employment. A scoping study found few work-related papers on dyslexia interventions. A pilot study found coaching improved clients' self-ratings of workplace performance. A double-blind controlled study compared individual coaching, group coaching, and a control group, finding improvements in self-efficacy and working memory for the individual coaching group. The study recommends including line managers in interventions, using pre-emptive workshops, and allowing adequate time for reasonable adjustments to take effect. More process research is planned to investigate variables affecting outcomes.
This document discusses cognitive skills and coping strategies. It provides information on improving cognitive skills through training and coaching. Some key points include:
- Studies have found improvements in memory and executive function tests from cognitive training programs lasting 6 months that include family members and follow up coaching.
- Mindfulness meditation training programs ranging from 10 days to 8 weeks have found improvements in working memory, attention switching, mood and anxiety. The effects depend on amount of practice.
- Group cognitive training programs may be more effective than individual training, though individual training showed significant effects after 6 months in one study. Group support and stimulus could help bring such training into workplace reasonable adjustments.

2) A second study compared the effects of individual coaching, group coaching, and a control group. Both group and individual coaching led to improved self-ratings of work performance immediately after coaching. Group coaching showed larger effects that were maintained longer term.
3) Manager ratings did not show significant effects. Further research is needed to understand what makes group coaching more effective, the necessary level of manager involvement, and whether contact time or specific self-efficacy measures could better capture the impacts of coaching. More evidence is
Short awareness on dyslexia and neurodiversity for HR managersNancy Doyle
The document provides information about neurodiversity and reasonable adjustments in the workplace for those with neurodiverse conditions such as dyslexia, ADHD, autism, and others. It discusses what neurodiversity is, examples of flash points and difficulties faced, examples of discrimination, and case studies. The case studies are used to discuss potential reasonable adjustments like assistive technology, coaching, environmental changes, and management approaches that could help neurodiverse employees overcome challenges. Studies showed coaching significantly improved areas of difficulty for neurodiverse employees based on their and manager ratings.
Presentation on our guidelines for Dyslexia festival 2014Nancy Doyle
The working group came together to promote best practices in workplace assessments. They have developed guidelines for diagnostic assessments, provided training to psychologists, and contributed to government consultations. The guidelines establish six principles for assessments including taking care of psychological well-being, ensuring occupational competence, writing accessible reports, exploring strengths, using appropriate terminology, and maintaining confidentiality boundaries. The group aims to recreate the diagnostic process to empower people to work at their best.
Collaborative research on Dyslexia as at 6th Jan 2015Nancy Doyle
1) The document summarizes research on the experiences of adults with dyslexia in employment, including the effectiveness of reasonable adjustments and relationships between dyslexia status, health outcomes, insomnia, and organizational support.
2) Studies found the most useful reasonable adjustments were memory aids, organizational aids, and software, and over half of respondents did not feel fully supported at work.
3) Dyslexics, both diagnosed and undiagnosed, reported more health issues and less well-being than non-dyslexics, and had higher rates of insomnia, particularly undiagnosed dyslexics.
4) Organizational support was found to potentially moderate relationships between dyslexia status
Using coaching to improve dyslexia in the workplaceNancy Doyle
This document summarizes research on coaching adults with dyslexia to improve workplace performance. It finds that coaching clients with dyslexia led to a 57% improvement in self-reported productivity and a 28% improvement according to manager reports. The amount of coaching received correlated with various outcomes, with more sessions relating to better scores in areas like working memory, organization, and dyslexia awareness. The document calls for further research comparing outcomes of coaching to technology-based support or a combination of the two.
Research using coaching to improve dyslexia in the workplaceNancy Doyle
The document summarizes research on coaching adults with dyslexia to improve workplace performance. It found that coaching significantly improved perceived productivity by 57% for clients and 28% for managers. Topics like memory, spelling and organization showed most improvement over multiple sessions. Strategy coaching had real effects on abilities and performance when delivered well. The research suggests combining coaching with technology and considering other client factors like sleep that impact outcomes.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Adjustments
• Concentration
• Open Plan
• Instructions
• Equality Act 2010
• Hidden disability
• Neurodiversity
• Access to Work
• Environmental adjustments
• Coaching Support
Difficulties in memory are specifically noted in the Equality Act but that many people
don’t understand WM and how it is relevant to development neurodiverse conditions
such as dyslexia, ADHD but also ABI, MS, Mental Health etc
Current practice through Access to Work is to offer coaching support – over 8000
clients per year for neurodiversity progressive illness and Mental Health(Gifford, 2011)
4. Working Memory Research
Currently predominantly focused on cognitive training via computer
Which does not help us in the field since 1) this is not yet creating “far transfer” (i.e. gains
in educational or workplace performance) and 2) it’s not what we deliver in practice
Practice has moved on without an evidence base, research is not focused on practice.
Sound familiar?

We noted that three of the NS studies were the shortest in terms of delivery time, and the 4th (Aries study
2) offered no practice
We noted that metacognition and rehearsal opportunity, in context, produced a consistently strong result
We noted that all of the successful interventions followed a similar process of discussion, followed by
group discussion and interaction with peers and practice in the context from which they originate. This
reminded us of……

Intervention
•SCLT compliant

•Group vs 1:1
•Can SCLT 1:1
protocols achieve
same results?
Mechanism
•Metacognition
•Stress reduction
•Can we measure
meta-memory
alongside
intervention to learn
more about the
metacognition
mechanism?
Outcome
•Increased WM
•Increased positive
affect
•Can we translate to
work performance as
mastery was
contextualised?
9. And who are Psychologists anyway?
There’s a lot of white haired social psychs from the 70s and 80s still ruling the roost
despite our current obsession with neuroscience….
But in all seriousness, we must hang on to our identity of psychology as the
interaction between the brain and it’s environment, rather than single focus on the
brain as the solution to all our problems…..
It’s going to be hard to increase WM with
repetitive games. Dyslexic Children
develop an identity when they enter the
classroom that is embedded – they are the
kid who can’t listen, the kid who gets it
wrong, the kid who forgets. The same is
true in the workplace and with careers.
Before I get started on some more white
haired psychs from the 70s (“coughs Tajfel
and Turner…. Coughs Social Identity
Theory) Let us leave it there!
Editor's Notes
Brief Explanation of Working Memory – do a quick digit span as a reminder to audience
Small comment about how satisfying it must have been to do all your theoretical development in the 80s before fMRI and then for fMRI to prove you correct!
All the ways in which WM deficits affect the workplace (Alloway, Gathercole & Kirkwood 2008)
Discuss how difficulties in memory are specifically noted in the Equality Act but that many people don’t understand WM and how it is relevant to development neurodiverse conditions such as dyslexia, ADHD but also ABI, MS, Mental Health etc
Current practice through Access to Work is to offer coaching support – over 8000 clients per year for neurodiversity progressive illness and Mental Health(Gifford, 2011)
Predominantly focused on cognitive training via computer
Which does not help us in the field since 1) this is not yet creating “far transfer” (explain what this is)
and 2) it’s not what we deliver
Practice has moved on without an evidence base, research is not focused on practice. Sound familiar?
Narrative Synthesis Review – Denyer and Tranfield, 2009 point of which is to develop theory about how and why programmes work
Our Extraction focused on adults wherever possible although included 5 studies of in education, simply a pragmatic measure as well matched in terms of participants and interventions
All studies included a recognised, standardised measure of WM as a dependent variable and then we interpreted the mechanisms by which this had occurred through reading the intervention description and the record of their other DVs, for example PANAS
We noted that three of the NS studies were the shortest in terms of delivery time, and the 4th (Aries study 2) offered no practice
We noted that metacognition and rehearsal opportunity, in context, produced a consistently strong result
We noted that all of the successful interventions followed a similar process of discussion, followed by group discussion and interaction with peers and practice in the context from which they originate. This reminded us of……
Talk through each section, how all the good studies contained an element of
group discussion that was lead by an expert
being lead through exercises to learn metacognition through mindfulness, meta-memory and/or self-regulation
Developing those skills with 1:1 or peer coaching or through own practice
Applying those skills back in original context away from training space, before coming back to reflect and troubleshoot as a group
Round up of Questions for future research to answer
1 – group vs 1:1 protocol. If SE is the goal, can we build this into 1:1 coaching (yes)
2 – develop our awareness of metacognition – Bor’s synaethesia study
3 – work place performance measures of ‘far transfer’
But what does it all mean and who are we anyway?
