Leverage the next evolution in values-driven leadership with a scientific breakthrough in human values data.

Neurologists have known for years that leading people effectively requires tapping into their core values. But until now, there hasn’t been a way to identify, measure, and leverage the specific values shared by teams, or large groups of people.

Then he shows you how to use values to tackle any issue and meet any goal.

Once you learn the accurate, science-backed, shared values of your people, the transformation begins. You’ll see your true self in your work. You’ll see where your values intersect with the values of people you need to engage. And you’ll find that more effective leadership comes from being more human. As David says: “If we let them, our values will unite us. Because we are all values-driven.”
