Ep #432: The Neuroscience of Behavior: How to Create the Conditions for Real Transformation with Dr. Lisa Riegel

What if the way we’ve been thinking about student behavior, engagement, and learning is missing a critical piece: the brain itself?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lisa Riegel, a former educator and expert in brain science, to explore how understanding neuroscience can completely shift the way you lead your school, support your teachers, and respond to your students. We dive into her work around the “8 C’s” and how school leaders can create the conditions for meaningful, lasting change.

Join us this week as we talk about how neuroscience impacts teaching, learning, and leadership. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of how the brain influences behavior, why traditional approaches to motivation and discipline often fall short, and how you can lead in a way that aligns with how people actually learn and change. This episode will help you think differently about your role as a leader and give you a new lens for supporting both students and staff in a more human-centered, effective way.
