Human Performance Under Uncertainty: How the Brain Responds When We Don't Know What Comes Next
351 Portuguese Startup Association
Event Organizer
In this session, neuroscientist Anna Steinzeig, PhD, examines what prolonged uncertainty does to the brain and how it manifests in the workplace as control-seeking, risk aversion, urgency, and defensiveness. The interactive, science-based session spans brain function, behaviour, and team dynamics, including short audience exercises to help participants identify their own uncertainty-driven patterns. Attendees leave with evidence-based tools to maintain performance even when certainty is unavailable.
