BIG TALK met Dick Swaab
Is entrepreneurship innate? Brain researcher, professor emeritus and bestselling author Dick Swaab will take us on an exciting talk at Het Industriegebouw on 11 November.
Is entrepreneurship innate? How much control do we have over our own thoughts and actions? To what extent can leadership be trained? And what happens in our heads when we are constantly exposed to stimuli, deadlines, and an endless stream of information? No one is better placed to shed light on this than Dick Swaab. We are in luck that the internationally renowned brain researcher, professor emeritus of neurobiology, and author of the bestseller Wij zijn ons brein is traveling to Rotterdam on Wednesday evening, November 11, to give a talk at our location, Het Industriegebouw. He has dedicated his career to unraveling the workings of our brains. Through his highly readable books and numerous media appearances, he has incidentally made the complex world of neuroscience accessible to an audience of millions, becoming one of the best-known scientists in the Netherlands. During this BIG TALK with the theme Zijn wij ons brein?, Dick Swaab will take us on a fascinating journey of discovery about the interaction between our gray matter and the desire and skill to run your own company or lead a team. It will be an evening that is guaranteed to make you think!
