Karriere: „Es ist in Ordnung, kein Karriereziel zu haben“
Die Londoner Neurowissenschaftlerin Anne-Laure Le Cunff forscht über den Weg zu Erfolg und mehr Produktivität. Statt sich große Ziele zu setzen, rät sie zu einer anderen Strategie.
Neurowissenschaftlerin and author, she has penned a book about success. Does a scientific recipe for success exist? If such a formula did exist, everyone would know, replicate, and follow it. There would be no need to write a book like mine. So, no, there isn't a magic formula. Yet, we understand from neuroscience how to learn best, which could boost chances of success.
How does this work? Through experimentation. The way the brain learns hinges on something scientists call the "perception-action cycle": initially, the brain perceives information from the environment. Based on this information, it predicts an outcome. This prediction could be right, fantastic, allowing the brain to learn from the result, or it could be wrong, which is also great.
The brain learns from the outcome, regardless of its outcome. Growth occurs, even when the path forward remains unclear.
