The Creation of the Self-Correcting Workforce
The Science Behind An Even Better Place to Work®
Our Employment Engagement Software transforms engagement data into automated performance improvement actions.
Most engagement software works like classroom training: it tells people what to do differently,
then leaves them to remember it the next time things get stressful at their desk.
An Even Better Place to Work® was built to close that gap.
NINS — Nonconscious Influential Neural Sequences
(Neural behavioural patterns)
Stress = habit fallback. Training ≠ behaviour change.
An Even Better Place to Work® is not learning software.
It is behaviour engineering software — built on NINS, the neuroscience-based framework developed by our co-founder Brian Bakeberg through
decades of applied research into how people actually behave under pressure, not just what they’re taught to do.
NINS is the thinking. ATPD™ (Accredited Transformational Personal Development) is how that thinking gets delivered —
the CPD-accredited system running inside every An Even Better Place to Work® programme.
