Executive Function

Improve your every day learning skills.

To operate successfully in a fast-paced working environment, one must be able to evaluate information, strategize, make decisions, and follow through with a course of action. Good executive function skills help people make better decisions and manage their time, attention, and behavior in an efficient manner. These skills include:

  • Time management

  • Organization and materials management

  • Memory and active listening

  • Attention awareness and control

  • Managing multiple tasks

  • Analyzing and problem solving

  • Flexible thinking

  • Emotional regulation and control

 

 

These skills support the part of human cognition that enables us to evaluate information, strategize, make decisions, and follow through with a course of action. Once an action is taken, our executive function analyzes the outcome and determines if this is an action, behavior, or response that should be repeated; and if not, what should be done instead. This high-level function of the brain is crucial to managing a well-balanced, appropriate, and successful life.

During the program, individuals will establish a set of measurable, academic/workplace, and personal goals and will develop skills and strategies to help them meet those goals.

The program will also help develop and practice better decision-making skills, time, and resource management skills, as well as improve his ability to manage multiple tasks at once and follow through with them in an organized manner.
