These days, if the modern human mind could have a personal translator, PR agent, and cheerleader, that person would be Dan Siegel. Beyond his impressive CV—he’s a clinical professor of psychiatry, founder and co-investigator at numerous research centres, founding editor of the Norton professional series on interpersonal neurobiology, and executive director of the Mindsight Institute—Siegel’s bestselling books have found their way into the hands of millions of everyday people seeking advice on developing awareness, regulating emotions, and raising whole-brain children. Having worked as a therapist and mind researcher for over 30 years, Siegel gets people and their patterns—on both a human and neurobiological level. More than any other psychiatrist alive today, he's changed the way we live, communicate, parent, and think about thinking.
In this keynote, we’ll explore how persistent patterns of emotion, thinking, and behaviour—known as “personality”—may have formed, and how to enable those potential prisons to transform into platforms of possibility that serve as playgrounds in life. Using research from the trans-disciplinary field of Interpersonal Neurobiology, we will explore the Patterns of Developmental Pathways (PDPs). Join us, and have your mind blown by our field’s beloved mind expert.
