Elise Zhu
Organizational Psychologist/ Executive Coach
Elise is an Organizational Psychologist. In recent years, she has been passionate about spreading applied and practical neuroscience knowledge in the area of management and leadership. She’s the founder of Center for NeuroEdge Leadership, which aims at empowering clients with competitive edge through neuroscience, by “rewiring” their brain to optimize brainpower and maximize performance. Therefore, she is considered the first “Brain Coach” in China. She is a frequent keynote speaker on the topic, presenting at various summits, conferences, and TEDx stage.
Her “Neuroscience and Leadership” Series workshops look at leadership from a whole new perspective, and empower organizations and individuals with scientific yet practical ways to improve leadership from personal, interpersonal, and organizational perspectives. She is able to make a seemingly academic and elusive subject surprisingly fun and practical, therefore her workshops have been highly sought after by companies, organizations and individuals. She was also invited to publish her online course “Rewire Your Super Brain” on China’s biggest female working professionals platform She Power, and has been critically acclaimed for the course. And the book under the same name has been published in Oct. 2020.
Apart from being a neuroscience enthusiast, Elise is also a seasoned Executive Coach and Talent Assessor. She has over a decade of extensive experience in working with corporate leaders, facilitating them in successfully navigating the challenges and opportunities in their professional life, as well as helping numerous multinational and domestic companies across China and the APAC region assessing and developing talents in order to build and enhance companies’ overall bench strength to support business in a competitive marketplace.
