The average employee has a concentration span of... hold on, you're getting a notification on your phone.
While you're there, why not scroll social media for a few minutes? And isn't it hot in here? How about going to the kitchen for a drink?

But what if you could take more control of your brain, and give it the best chance of success? Imagine you could shape your work around the spikes and troughs of your mental energy; know where and when to do particular tasks; even change the way your team works, to boost the power of everyone's brain.
