Speakers: Dr. James Merlo & Dr. Mike Legatt

Today we’re looking forward to presenting on “Cognitive Flexibility.” Cognitive flexibility is a key function, one we require to learn, adapt, and handle high-stress, high-stakes situations. Cognitive flexibility, at its best, allows us to manage multiple inputs, shift thinking and assumptions, change strategies and better see the “big picture”. When we struggle with cognitive flexibility, we can become fixated on one detail, keep trying a failed strategy, and ultimately can’t succeed in what we’re trying to do. In this presentation, we’ll talk about what cognitive flexibility is, how we measure it, and what we can do to improve it.
