THE MORE YOU USE AI TO THINK,
THE LESS YOU CAN THINK WITHOUT IT.
AI dependency is your biggest threat. Not AI...your dependence on it.
You were never taught how to think. You were told what to think.
AI is banking on that.
Brain-centric training makes people sharper, not just informed.
Sharper thinking isn't an advantage. It's the only one left.




Your CFO wants measurable results, not completion rates
You've tried everything: microlearning, gamification, certifications
Programs get high satisfaction scores but behavior doesn't change
You're spending millions with no way to prove it's working
You ask AI before you try thinking it through yourself
Decisions you used to trust yourself on now feel uncertain
You're not sure if you're getting better or just more dependent
And the people who don't notice are your competition
The people supposed to be "in the loop" aren't really thinking
Your leaders know what to do, but can't get buy-in when they communicate
Competitors are moving faster because they communicate better
Strategic initiatives stall because people can't gain adoption
Every time someone uses AI to do thinking they could do themselves, their ability to think independently gets a little weaker.
Like a muscle you stop using. It's so gradual that nobody notices...until the day someone needs to make a real decision and realizes they can't trust their own mind anymore.
The people who stay sharp will be the ones who lead
88% of training doesn't change what people actually do
Gartner predicts "lazy thinking" becomes an organizational crisis in 2026
You Can't Persuade Your Way Out of This.
You need a different approach entirely.
Invisible Influence methods create natural adoption
Clients see $4 return for every $1 invested within 90 days
Participants apply new skills immediately after training

The Honest Answer: Most "neuroscience-based" programs use neuroscience as marketing decoration. They reference brain science but teach the same behavioral techniques from 70 years ago.
Brain-centric Design was co-created with an actual cognitive neuroscientist (Dr. Kieran O'Mahony) and validated at Fortune 100 scale. Every framework—Challenge Wheel, Greenhousing, Cognitive Glide Path—is built on specific neural mechanisms, not neuroscience buzzwords.
The Proof: Nike didn't reduce training time 40% with repackaged behavioral training. They got measurable results because the methodology works with brain biology.
Sharper means faster to insight with less information. It's the difference between someone who needs three meetings to understand a problem and someone who sees it in the first five minutes. Brain-centric Design trains multi-lobal engagement...your brain processes information through more pathways simultaneously. More pathways, faster pattern recognition, sharper conclusions.
The Honest Answer: Those approaches optimize delivery format (shorter, more engaging, more convenient). Brain-centric Design optimizes neural processing—how the brain actually encodes, retains, and transfers information.
The Analogy: It's like optimizing the packaging while ignoring what's inside. You can make training shorter and more engaging, but if it still fights brain biology, it won't transfer to the job.
88% of training fails not because it's too long or boring...it fails because it doesn't align with how the brain learns.
For Organizations:
→ 90-Day Pilot: Initial 2-week setup, then 8-12 weeks delivery, final 2 weeks measurement
→ Typical time per participant: 40-60% LESS than current training for same competence level
For Individuals:
→ Basics Workshop: 2 days (4 hours each)
→ BcID Certification: 13-14 weeks (28 sessions, fits around full-time work)
The ROI on Time: You spend less time training and get better results. Nike reduced training time 40% while improving outcomes.
The Framework: We establish baseline metrics before implementation:
→ Current time to competence
→ Current retention/attrition rates
→ Current performance scores
→ Current training costs per employee
→ Then measure identical metrics at 30, 60, and 90 days post-implementation.
What Nike Measured:
→ Training time reduction (40%)
→ Attrition reduction (substantial, zero in some divisions)
→ Customer satisfaction score improvement
→ Cost per trained employee
Your Metrics: We customize to what your CFO already measures. If you can't measure it, we help you build the framework.
The Honest Answer: This is the most common fear, and it's based on experience with other methodologies that require cultural buy-in before they work.
Brain-centric Design is different: It works with brain biology, which is universal. Your culture doesn't need to change for brains to prefer psychological safety over stress. For neural pathways to fire together and wire together. For the Cognitive Glide Path to prepare minds for adoption.
The Proof: It works across wildly different cultures—Nike Consumer Services, Department of Defense, Western Europe operations, 20+ countries. The brain's processing mechanisms don't change based on organizational culture.
The Reframe: You're spending your training budget right now...but it's not returning anything measurable.
The Math: Average large company training expenditure: $16.1 million annually
Average ROI from traditional training: Unmeasurable
What you're actually spending: $16.1 million, with no proof it works
Brain-centric Design: $4 returned per $1 invested within 90 days.
The Real Question: Can you afford to keep spending millions with no measurable return? Or invest a fraction of that budget in methodology with guaranteed ROI?
Start Small: 90-Day Pilot with 10-50 people proves ROI before full commitment.
We'll Help: We provide executive briefing materials including:
→ ROI calculator showing current waste vs. projected savings
→ Nike case study with Fortune 100-level metrics
→ White paper: "The $2.4M Cost of Training That Doesn't Transfer"
→ Comparison analysis: BcD vs. your current approach
Schedule Executive Consultation →
We've done this hundreds of times. We know what CFOs, CHROs, and CEOs need to see.
For Organizations:
→ Alumni continuing education: New frameworks quarterly
→ Certified facilitator community access
→ Advanced implementation consulting available
→ The Education Engine (SaaS platform) for ongoing delivery
For Individuals:
→ BcID Alumni Network: $497/year (job board, resources, quarterly calls)
→ Continuing education credits
→ Advanced certification paths
→ Career support and community
This isn't a one-time workshop. It's a methodology you'll use for your entire career.
The Honest Answer: You shouldn't choose us "over" them—Brain-centric Design addresses a different problem.
Cialdini teaches what makes people say yes (behavioral persuasion during conversations).
Brain-centric Design teaches how to prepare minds before conversations so adoption feels voluntary.
Dale Carnegie teaches timeless people skills (relationship-building).
Brain-centric Design adds the neuroscience "why it works" with measurable ROI.
NeuroLeadership Institute pioneered neuroscience in leadership (first-mover advantage).
Brain-centric Design focuses specifically on communication/influence with Fortune 100-validated ROI and actual cognitive neuroscientist co-creator.
The Real Difference: $4:$1 ROI in 90 days.
Choice 1: Keep using training methods that promise transformation but deliver only completion certificates. Watch 88% fail to transfer. Continue defending your budget with no measurable ROI.
Choice 2: Try another "innovative" approach—microlearning, gamification, AI-powered content. Get marginally better engagement but the same poor retention. Still no proof it works.
Choice 3: Implement the only methodology with Fortune 100-validated ROI, co-created by a cognitive neuroscientist, guaranteed to deliver $4 per $1 invested within 90 days.
Which choice protects your budget? Your reputation? Your career?
