Take the Assessment → 03 Get Travis to Your Event Keynotes · Workshops · Advisory If something in that conversation made you think “my team needs to hear this” — that instinct is usually right. Travis speaks at conferences and leadership events, and works with a small number of organizations each year through his advisory retainer. Book Travis → The Thread Behind Every Episode Resistance isn’t rebellion. It’s biology. Most change initiatives fail not because of bad strategy — but because of neuroscience nobody accounted for. The brain registers organizational change the same way it registers physical threat. New structure, new technology, new leadership — it doesn’t matter. The response is the same. And most organizations design their change programs as if that weren’t true. Travis spent more than a decade studying that response in EEG labs, at Harvard, and inside some of the world’s most complex organizations. The Six Barriers framework is what he built from it. Every conversation, every keynote, and every chapter in the book is an attempt to make that science usable — for leaders who are done losing to resistance they can’t explain. How we’re rethinking resistance 01 Resistance is neurological, not behavioral The brain’s threat response is the root cause of most change failure — and it’s predictable before it happens. 02 The Six Barriers follow patterns Once you can name which barrier is active in your organization, you can design around it instead of brute-forcing through it. 03 AI adoption is the current proving ground Every AI rollout happening right now is failing or succeeding for neurological reasons most organizations aren’t accounting for. 04 Great leadership is neuroscience applied The leaders who navigate change well aren’t more charismatic — they understand how human brains function under pressure and lead accordingly. Stay in the Conversation The ideas, between episodes. Travis sends occasional writing on the neuroscience of change, leadership under pressure, and what’s actually working inside the organizations he works with. No schedule. No filler.
