Biography

What if unlocking higher performance, deeper engagement, and stronger leadership wasn’t guesswork — but science?

Amy Brann is a leading authority on applying neuroscience to business performance, helping organisations move beyond theory to measurable impact.

As a trusted advisor to global brands including EY, Twinings, Haleon, and the NHS, Amy translates cutting-edge brain science into practical strategies that transform the way people think, lead, and collaborate. Unlike many speakers who simply share research, Amy works on the frontline of behaviour change — embedding sustainable shifts in mindset and performance.

She is the author of three acclaimed books — Make Your Brain Work, Neuroscience for Coaches, and Engaged — each offering science-backed approaches to people development. Through Synaptic Potential, the organisation she founded, Amy has partnered with the Wales Centre for Behaviour Change, collaborated with the Møller Institute at the University of Cambridge to deliver leadership programmes, and led the neuroscience component of the Masters of Sports Directorship at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Her insights have been featured in Harvard Business Review, The Guardian, BBC, and The Observer, and she has been recognised as one of HR’s Most Influential Thinkers — testament to her impact at the intersection of science and performance.

What sets Amy apart is her ability to make complex science engaging, humorous, and immediately actionable. Audiences don’t just listen — they experience light-bulb moments that shift their approach to work on the spot. Her keynotes go beyond inspiration, equipping leaders with tools to unlock innovation, agility, and productivity — without burnout.

For organisations looking to future-proof their people, elevate leadership, and unlock untapped potential, Amy Brann delivers more than insight — she delivers transformation.
