TITLE
Haley Forest is a renaissance woman at the intersection of leadership, creativity, and neuroscience. Haley’s career path is anything but traditional—she spent two decades in hospitality, where she developed a deep understanding of human behavior, before transitioning into the world of innovation and business strategy. Now, as she completes her doctorate in leadership psychology, she’s focused on the neuroscience of creative cognition—how our brains generate ideas and what that means for leadership, problem-solving, and team dynamics.
In our conversation, we talk about how leaders can cultivate creativity within their teams, the science behind balancing structure with innovation, and why authenticity plays a key role in fostering trust and collaboration. We also dive into her fascinating research on how alternating between deep focus and mind-wandering can enhance creative output—a game-changer for anyone looking to improve problem-solving in their organization
