Shingo Principles Podcast Episode 55: Leading Through Neuroscience: Developing Human Management Systems
In this engaging session, Rolando Vargas, Global Director of Organizational Excellence and researcher of NeuroExcellence, reveals how modern management systems can be strengthened by applying insights from neuroscience, neuroeducation, and the Shingo Model. His central message is clear: organizations perform at the speed of human cognition, and leaders can dramatically improve results by designing systems that work with the brain rather than against it.
Rolando explains how stress, uncertainty, and overload limit performance, while clarity, trust, autonomy, and meaningful feedback accelerate learning and execution. Participants will explore practical concepts such as SCARF-based communication, motivation hygiene, cognitive load protection, and coaching cadences that reinforce ideal behaviors.
Grounded in real-world examples from terminal operations and healthcare, this webinar demonstrates how small adjustments to daily management, reporting, and leader–team interactions can significantly improve psychological safety, decision-making, and consistency.
This session offers a clear, actionable lens on organizational excellence that is rooted in biology and driven by principles. Leaders will walk away with practical tools and a deeper understanding of how to shape systems that unlock human capability, strengthen culture, and sustain high performance.
