Fingerprint Learning empowers individuals and organisations to succeed through Upstream Thinking and tailored Whole Brain strategies.
Upstream Thinking transforms personal, organisational and educational practice by starting with a clear understanding of who we are and how we think.
Whole Brain strategies apply robust insights from neuroscience and psychology to enhance self‑awareness, learning, leadership and organisational performance.
Fingerprint Learning empowers individuals and organizations to succeed through tailored ‘Whole Brain’ strategies.
By understanding that every brain is uniquely wired we apply cutting-edge research to educational practice, business and organisational success and personal health and wellbeing.
Let us help you create tailored strategies for teaching, team formation, and lifelong wellbeing in your organisation or school.
Upstream thinking
Upstream thinking involves recognising ourselves and others as whole beings -with souls as well as brains and bodies. It acknowledges the soul’s extraordinary capacity for awe, wisdom, aspiration, beauty, passion, good and evil. The soul, not the brain, is the ‘upstream source’ of our innate search for meaning and purpose in life – the sense that we have a calling to reach upwards to become more than we are now. Over-emphasis on the brain in science and modern psychology to the neglect or ‘cancelling’ the soul, prevents us looking further upstream to the soul’s extraordinary capacity for becoming ever better versions of ourselves.
Whole-brain strategies
Whole-brain strategies recognise and utilise astonishing advances in neuroscience and psychology to provide practical models and tools that support personal development and help individuals pursue their aspirations across three key areas of life.
Helping You Achieve Your Aspirations and Goals Across Life And Work
Education
Neuroscience and psychology put tools for successful learning and outstanding teaching into the hands of teachers, trainers and learners of all ages. Education is nurturing souls as well as informing brains. Our 4A Model combines whole brain strategies with upstream thinking about education to achieve this.
Wellbeing
Our BrainFit programme aligns ‘upstream’ lifestyle strategies with personality traits to promote lifelong physical and mental wellbeing. Our personalised approaches for long-term cognitive vitality reduce the risk of dementia in later life.
Business
Achieve your organisation’s goals by upstream thinking using our research-based tools for leadership and team formation
Form ‘balanced teams’ and turn them into ‘high performing’ teams with our proven Mindset Profiling.
