Friederike Fabritius is a neuroscientist and Wall Street Journal bestselling author. She helps leaders turn neuroscience into practical ways to work, lead, and perform better.

Friederike has always been curious about how the brain works and why people behave the way they do. That curiosity led her into neuroscience. When she left the laboratory for management consulting, she was shocked by how people worked. It bore little resemblance to what she knew about how brains work best. Not even close.

That experience led her on a journey through neuroscience literature in pursuit of answers to some pressing questions. How can we work better? What are the principles that lead to better learning, improved collaboration, and the highest performance? And how can we make them applicable to busy executives? Ever since then, Friederike Fabritius has worked with C-level executives from more than 164 countries in creating brain-friendly ways of working. It also led her to write which was published by Random House and has been translated internationally.

She went back to the research with practical questions: How can we learn better, collaborate better, and perform at our best? And how can busy executives use that knowledge? Since then, Friederike Fabritius has worked with C-level executives from more than 164 countries in creating brain-friendly ways of working. This work also led her to write her Wall Street Journal besterller, The Brain-Friendly Workplace: Why Talented People Quit and How to Get Them to Stay, and her award-winning book The Leading Brain, both of which have been translated and published internationally.

Friederike makes complex science clear, entertaining, and immediately useful. Her keynotes combine neuroscience, humor, storytelling, and live interaction, giving people ideas they remember and tools they use.
