Group 8
provides professional development that incorporates
recent research into how our brains handle change
and that fosters the best conditions for
stimulating learning and change in both adults and
children.
Most
successful adults can point to key teachers or
mentors who have positively affected their life's
trajectory...
Research indicates that a single adult who genuinely cares for a disadvantaged or damaged child is the minimum necessary for that child to recover and develop normally...
The unconditional love of a mother for her child is a key to a baby's successful development...
What are these teachers, mentors, caring adults and loving mothers doing?
...and how can we use it?
Group 8 specialise in the building of leadership capacity through a unique brain-based approach.
We are an organisation dedicated to the development of the person as the 'core unit' of organisations and society. This focus refers to the long-term, broad-based growth of the mind, that part of a person that continues to grow after physical maturity has been reached.
Through our programs we seek to bring balanced development whilst enhancing the growth of cognition (intelligence, IQ, awareness) that is already built into the structure of our families, schools and workplaces.
The focus on the development of the person is further evolved into cultural change, the development of the person through their engagement with others within specific organisational contexts e.g. schools or professional services, this enhances development as well as giving superior organisational outcomes.
This focus has emerged from our research into the “ideal school” and the use of the latest neuroscience to explain our findings.

I have become a different leader, I believe I am more effective. I feel more at ease with the demands of job and deal with issues with a greater sense of calmness and engagement.”
