Biography

“You’re good with your hands, but your brother is more intelligent…” was something Tom Flatau was told often as a child. Having failed a major entry exam and consigned to being ‘average’, he is living proof that anyone can be who they want to be and achieve a destiny beyond their dreams, exceeding the low expectation of others.

Training with the Neuroleadership Institute, Tom is an accredited brain and behaviour specialist, using applied neuroscience research and tried-and-tested techniques to motivate and transform. Through his interactive delivery using real-world examples and scientific explanation, Tom’s talks explain the limiting beliefs and fixed mindsets that inhibits the potential of so many. He explains how, with even a basic understanding of how the brain works and it’s ability to rewire itself, we can make an everlasting change in behaviours and Mindset.

With a Masters in Business Analysis & Systems Design and as a Fellow of the Institute of Leadership and Management, Tom Flatau combines business acumen and intimate knowledge of corporate culture with neuroscience research, mindset training and brainbased behaviour change to transform individuals and deliver growth and profitability in world-class organisations, including HSBC, Louis Vuitton, Emirates, Siemens, Unilever and the BBC.

“What you achieved in the room was to get our members to actually open up and disclose their own vulnerabilities on a very human and real level which I think gave great strength to the room.“ Chartered Institute of Builders - CEO
“It was fantastic, absolutely brilliant. Tom engaged the audience, got everybody talking. There was just a really great atmosphere in the room, it was a really, really successful evening, and everyone learned something and that’s what an IoD events are all about.” Institute of Directors - Regional Director
“Hugely insightful and relevant. The most impactful and exciting learning experience I have had in recent years. Neuroscience – understanding the why behind what we do – massively enhances our capacity to use our emotional intelligence for the benefit of ourselves and others.” Louis Vuitton - Senior learning & development manager
"Tom is an interactive and inspiring speaker. Tom’s session was focused on leading change by asking questions, focussing on solutions, autonomy in the office, welcoming challenges, developing a conscious leadership and positive reinforcement which are all mandatory attributes for continuous growth. I highly recommend the values expressed in this seminar.” Atkins construction - Design Engineering and Site Operations
“Tom's unique style in delivering the neuroscience of Mindset has been life changing for me. The understanding of how the brain works, that it is not fixed and we all have the potential to achieve what we want has made me a happier person, our team stronger and the potential for our business unlimited. Thank you” JRP – Partner
“Fantastic session. If you are looking to develop a growth-mindset and explore the science behind behaviours, then Tom is recommended.” Chartered Insurance Institute of Sheffield – President
"We were introduced to Tom when he was making a presentation to the ICE in Dubai where one of our managers was impressed by Tom’s approach to understanding management styles. Since then we have carried out several different training sessions both online and in person and found them to be insightful and thought provoking. We were looking for a way to get our mangers thinking in fresh and open minded ways and certainly achieved that.” Menard Vibro - General Manager
“Best webinar I have ever had the privilege in attending!! It was sooo interesting and quite frankly fascinating!” Chartered Insurance Institute - Operational development consultant
“Tom spoke at a CPD event, helping us to understand the impact of bias on individuals and teams, coupled with solutions to improve effectiveness so the session was of real value. If you are passionate about helping your team be the best they can be, a session with Tom is a must. His clear, engaging and interactive style enables him to get his message across, and his passion and enthusiasm for the subject inspires others to engage more deeply with it - it's certainly whetted my appetite to do so!” Risk & Insurance professional
“I attended an APM webinar, Unconscious biases that undermine performance and decision-making, which Tom was the speaker for. The webinar was very interesting and insightful and will help me not only in my career but in life in general. Great to see someone so genuine, honest and being himself! The session was engaging and interactive and the hour went so quick! Thanks again Tom.” British Petroleum - Business Development
“It is presented differently. It contains a totally different approach to anything I’ve done before. It kept you fully engrossed, it was very insightful. There were lots of new elements to it. I’ve been doing a leadership course for 12-18 months and there were elements in there that were presented totally differently and for myself had far more connection, particularly the conscious versus the subconscious. Fascinating.” Multiserve – Director
“Tom provided a number of presentations and seminars that I was involved in that really opened my eyes in regard to my subconscious behaviours in respect to deal making and breaking behaviours. I would certainly recommend Tom and his sessions to any professional team that needs to apply understanding to human behaviour through the process of selling and closing. Really eye opening!" CDS Int - Founder
”Really engaging, thoroughly interactive from the whole audience. I have come away with so much and really enjoyed it. I’ve never been to anything like that before and didn’t really know what to expect, so for me all the neuroscience was fantastic. I’ve certainly learnt some skills that I’m going to put into my work as business development. Definitely take part - I would take part again, I’ve loved it." Chartered Institute of Builders - Business Development
“Tom led a workshop on the fascinating topic of Neuroscience. About 60 Human Resources and Learning and Development professionals were totally captivated. Tom's engaging blend of knowledge, humility and humour lent itself beautifully to the topic, showing the power of neuroscience in the workplace in an accessible and lively way. Every person in a position of authority and leadership could learn tonnes from what Tom shared as he translates hard science into soft skills we can all benefit from applying. I can't wait to see him speak again.” Career change and clarity coach
“Tom presented to the Middle East Chapter of CoreNet Global and it was a really engaging and interesting session. Everyone who attended agreed that the hour was not long enough!! I believe several attendees were so impressed that they were discussing further opportunities to up skill their staff.” CoreNet Global – Chair
“Tom’s seminar on negotiation was phenomenal, with loads of interesting stuff to learn. Tom developed such a great atmosphere that everybody wished to interact and participate. He exhibited an outstanding performance and showcased his deep knowledge of the subject. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to be a part of that seminar and would highly advise others that you shouldn't miss it!” Parsons Corporation -PMO
