Abstract :
To be effective, leaders need flexible access to their whole brain. Understanding how the human brain works and knowing how to best use the logical and social brain can provide a critical course for effective leadership. The present research by investigating 30 people from government and non-government sector managers and simultaneously recording the brain waves and heart wave rhythm of these people while performing the cognitive task of evaluating the response control and risk-taking of decision-making CGT (CANTAB software) with the Procomp 2 coherence evaluation device EEG describes heart wave rhythm (HRV) based on neuroscience and neurocardiology. The findings showed that the correlation coefficient test of brain waves and heart waves in both resting and performing cognitive tasks had significant differences from each other, so that there is no similarity between the coherence of EEG and ECG in the resting state with the time of performing the cognitive task of CGT among government and non-government sector workers. was not observed. These results show that the changes in brain and heart waves of people during rest and decision time are different from each other, so that the changes in brain waves and heart waves and the cooperation of these waves with each other depend on the environmental, mental and emotional conditions of people.
