Get Involved To Grow

Advice hits the ears;

Practice hits the hippocampus.

Only active recall forges the synapses we call “long-term change.”

Telling a team what to do feels efficient,
until everyone forgets by Monday.

If you want ideas to stick, people must use them, not just hear them.

Here’s the neural rule:

Active Recall = Stronger Synapses.
Passive listening? The memory fades in hours.
So rather than lecture, weave in quick teach-back drills.

These exercises force the brain to light up the right circuits.

Sketch & Fill
• Hand the marker to the team.
• They draw the workflow from memory.
• You add missing steps.

Why it works
Drawing + recall = motor cortex + memory circuits firing together.

Role‑Swap Recap
• Pause halfway.
• Pick someone to explain the last step to the room in their own words.
• Correct gently, then move on.

Why it works
Speaking out loud forces retrieval and shows gaps instantly.

24‑Hour Demo Ping
• After the meeting, ask for a 2‑minute screen‑record by tomorrow.
• They run the new method on live data and narrate the choices they make.

Why it works
Spaced repetition within a day locks new pathways before they decay.

When people can teach you the playbook, you know they own it.

That’s when your leadership becomes lasting; neurons, habits, and culture all align
