The Author

Michael J. Southworth.

Co-founder & CEO, Vitanya

Michael Southworth spent ten years building brain performance programs for the military and police. Then he wrote down what he learned. He co-founded Vitanya in 2012 and still runs it. He has made the same case in ImpactAlpha. The capacity behind a decision is an asset, and almost nobody measures it.

He does not do it alone. Meet the team.

Written for Leaders in the Brain Economy

Executives

You suspect the real limit on the business is how clearly your people can think. You want a number for it.

Commanders & chiefs

You answer for readiness in a population where a bad call costs more than money.

Individuals and Families

You want a brain plan for yourself and for the people you look after. Start with your own before you take it to work.

For Your Organization

“Technology alone will not decide who wins.”

— Michael J. Southworth, The Brain Capitalist

Your Company Needs a Brain Plan.

The book shows you the trend. A brain plan positions your company inside it. Think of it as consulting, with your people’s brains as the driver. That is what we build.
