Testimonials

I loved your engaging sales team session. I never thought about my brain as my ‘most prized asset’ before, very insightful.

The Neuroscience of Sales Effectiveness described the fundamentals of neuroscience and how they influence our communications and behaviour which is highly valuable. However, what really caught my attention, was how Vannessa linked this to some practical techniques which I will apply when exploring challenges with potential clients.

The Neuroscience of sales effectiveness delivered by Vannessa is the most unique and useful training program I’ve attended in a very long time. Key to me was that it didn’t repeat things I’ve heard before, instead it was full of new and useful tools and techniques that are adding real value to my client engagements.

Thank you for the interactive internal session for the Dropbox APAC Sales Team, where we explored both strategies to drive success and our social motivators. Great session with lasting impact!

I first met Vannessa and was awed with her knowledge, positivity and general approach to the world in which we live. Needless to say once I heard her book REWIRE for SUCCESS was coming, my interest was immediately sparked and I was not disappointed. REWIRE is an easy to read and digest way to simply understand the reasoning behind why we behave the way we do, complimented with how to look at ways to address and manage it on your own terms. It allowed me to stop and take time to read and take in:
1. Defining my WHY
2. Understanding the FOOD framework; and
3. The power of I am statements
A powerful learning for me was identifying that I’ve found myself defining myself based upon peoples perceived needs as I’ve moved through my career. Through the F.O.O.D framework and in particular the importance of Fuelling your brain, I’ve rediscovered my love of music and now take the time to “fuel my brain” as a part of my daily routine.

With the past few years leading, many of us becoming more introspective and questioning “what am I doing for me…..what works for me”, this book is key to mentoring you through a way forward focussed on truly understanding what makes “you” tick.

If your busy life and work schedule is proving too stressful and getting you down and you need to get back on track then ‘REWIRE for SUCCESS’ is a must read! This concise and easy to digest text provides valuable insights into neuroscience and how your brain is the key to unlocking negative behaviour, overcoming obstacles to achieve peak performance and productivity. Vannessa cleverly helps you to put the theory into practice with helpful ‘Just do it’ tips at the end of each section, and additional techniques from experts for you to explore further. If you want actionable advice then this ‘hands-on’ read will revitalise your life for success!

Everyone needs a copy of this book. It teaches scientific principles for improving cognitive function to better your everyday life, however is written in a simple format that is easy to follow and understand.

I’m sure you’ll find yourself putting these principles into practice immediately.

Vannessa’s book REWIRE for SUCCESS is a helpful guide to optimise your body’s CPU – your brain. This book shows us how to bounce back when things get tough and how to enjoy like while staying healthy. This book talks about the problems we face today, like dealing with too much information and always being asked to do more with less. Vannessa writes about how busy life can get in the way of our thinking, making decisions, and coming up with new ideas. This affects us, our families, our friends and our work. I was also touched by Vannessa’s personal story in the book. Great read.

A simple to follow guide – REWIRE for SUCCESS, incorporates how neuroscience can add value to your personal and work life. Fabulous for leaders as this approach is still relatively new in the corporate world, but much needed.

I love how REWIRE for SUCCESS has brought together the science aspect of why we think in a certain way and the F.O.O.D framework to change how we work and live our lives to maximise our potential. This book provides a holistic approach to well-being and professional strategies to capture all aspects of what it takes to live an optimal life and professional career.

Through changing some habits I have already benefited from the insights shared by Vannessa into how we can change our daily routine to reduce stress and burnout living in a fast-paced digital world. This book is very timely and a must read.

Vannessa has created a real gem of a guide with the book REWIRE for SUCCESS for those looking for some science behind why we make the choices we make, and how to improve these choices if needed. The personal story from Vannessa will engage you as a reader right from the first page and her stories of moments and people that shaped her life will leave a lasting impression as you navigate your own journey.

Throughout the book, reflection and anecdotes weave around frameworks that give you F.O.O.D. for thought and the D.R.I.V.E. to really effect behavioural change as you improve choices for work, life and well-being.

I highly recommend this book from cover to cover with a light and easy to read style, I am sure you will walk away with tools to help you reorganise and take meaningful steps to self-actualisation as you REWIRE for SUCCESS.

REWIRE for SUCCESS is an excellent book for those interested in learning how to effectively create new habits as well as explore simple concepts of Neuroplasticity.

The book connected well with me personally as Vannessa shares her experiences in a way that is quite relatable. After reading, as I have, I believe you will feel encouraged to self-improve in areas that connect to your greater purpose.
