DEVELOPED BY DR. CYNTHIA MILANI
NEUROdiversophy is an exciting new game to teach people from all walks of life the latest discoveries of neuroscience and cognitive research. We explore the impact and implications these discoveries have on leadership, decision-making and how to thrive in diverse cultures as each player learns effective new strategies. Social constructionist theory is telling us that we author the stories with which we hope to master and shape our worlds including our social structures. But, how do genes play a role, or gender, and how does our individual neural wiring predispose us to make decisions, and take action? How do we alter our behavior to be more effective at work and at home? Draw a card and find out!
