YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO IT ALONE

Meet The Neuroencoding Instructors and Administrator Team

FACULTY: Engage with our world-class faculty of distinguished experts in the Neuroencoding Institute methods of coaching, speaking, presentation, and storytelling.

Joseph McClendon III, PhD: Founder and Lead Instructor of the Neuroencoding Institute.

Joseph McClendon III is a renowned Neuropsychologist with a client list that includes Academy award winning celebrities, Olympic athletes, Broadway stars, and Fortune 100 CEOs. Over the last 35 years he’s become a world class speaker and presenter, sharing the stage alongside greats like Tony Robbins and Les Brown, and regularly speaking to audiences of 10,000 or more.

A New York Times best selling author, Joseph’s application of neuroscience to personal growth has earned him invitations to speak for institutions like Harvard University, and secured him a teaching position at the University of California Los Angeles.

His life’s work has been developing the brain science system known as neuroencoding, which is the process for programming the mind and body to default to their best, no matter the circumstance or goal. Joseph is the Founder of The Neuroencoding Institute, where he and his faculty certify others in the neuroencoding methods and equip them with tools needed to help others default to their best too.

He is the host of the top ranking Further Faster Podcast, and a transformative presence in millions of lives through his social media channels. Joseph lives in Southern California with his son, and when he’s not teaching the brain science of neuroencoding, you can find him playing bass guitar and gardening.

Kay Salerno and Shila Morris, Co-Founders of the Neuroencoding Institute, Business Building Instructors

When Kay and Shila were 10 and 17, their parents quit their careers and “bet it all” to buy a tiny breakfast restaurant in a California ski town. The sisters instantly gained a front row seat to the drama of American entrepreneurship, and joined the ownership to help grow the business into a national brand featured on Food Network, in The New York Times, Forbes and more. The sisters maintain ownership of the 8 figure restaurant chain and serve as co-chairs of the board.

Since 2015 Kay and Shila have shared their stories and strategies as speakers and podcasts hosts, speaking to crowds of dozens, hundreds, and thousands. Contracted by leadership expert and bestselling author John Maxwell, the sisters helped design a marketing strategy that yielded 90 million dollars in sales and they still serve as the marketing faculty for John’s organization of more than 40,000 members.

The sisters have had the opportunity to interview and share stages with many accomplished people, including, John Maxwell, Michelle Obama, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Daniel Amen, and Dr. Robert Cialdini.

They are now partnered with the the famous neuropsychologist Dr. Joseph McClendon III, as co-founders of The Neuroencoding Institute, an educational organization that certifies students in neuroscience methodologies.

Kay and Shila live in Reno Nevada with their husbands and children, and when they aren’t trying to elevate the world, you can often find them doing puzzles, practicing piano, teaching at the University of Nevada, and singing songs from the smash Broadway hit: Hamilton.

Les Brown, Instructor & Mentor of the Neuroencoding Method of Storytelling

As the world’s PREMIER Storyteller, Keynote Speaker, Author, and  Leading Expert on Business & Personal Achievement, Les Brown energizes people to meet life’s challenges.  Speaking to worldwide audiences as large as 80,000, he skillfully weaves his compelling life story into the fabric of his teachings. The thread is forever strengthened, as he inspires audiences to abandon complacency, aim high, achieve, and actively make an impact.

Relentlessly using his energies to transform the world well-beyond the podium and public appearances, Les meshes traditional and social media to empower his audiences. Hundreds of thousands follow him on YouTube and tens of thousands interact with him regularly on Facebook. He has a keen way of turning what he touches into gold. Over 20 years ago, he won a Chicago-area Emmy® for his unsurpassed fundraising pledge drive for the Public Broadcasting System and has since written several bestselling books and hosted popular national talk shows on television and radio.

Les Brown’s straight-from-the-heart passion and high-energy, motivate everyone he comes in contact with to step beyond their limitations and into their greatness. Over the past decade, Les has expanded his role from keynote speaker to Master Trainer, creating unsurpassable workshop learning experiences. With charisma, warmth, and humor, he helps transform ordinary people into extraordinary achievers by using his own life, and his in-depth study of others’ challenges to build an understanding of what works, what doesn’t work, and why.

Mistakenly declaring their student “Educable mentally retarded, teachers did not recognize the true potential of little Les Brown. However, he used determination, persistence, and belief in his ability to unleash amazing achievements including broadcast station manager, political commentator, and multi-term state representative in Ohio.

Today, Les is a highly sought-after resource in business and professional circles for Fortune 500 CEOs, small business owners, and non-profit and community leaders looking to expand opportunity. When people face roadblocks or adversity, Les’ depth of knowledge around the science of achievement and way with words motivate people to create lasting results by stepping beyond their limitations and into their greatness.

Veenu Keller​, Instructor of the Neuroencoding-brand Method of Coaching

As a Certified Life Coach and a Certified Behavior Consultant whose passion and expertise lies in parenting, Veenu Keller knows all too well how many kids do not feel they are enough and have low self-esteem.

Veenu has almost every title of mom, and understands the ups and downs of being a mom. The biggest gift she has learned on her journey through motherhood is that being a mama is a sacred gift we are given. When we realize it is not a measuring tool and focus on the connection and the gift, it is an entirely different journey.

As a Certified Life Coach and a Certified Behavior Consultant whose passion and expertise lies in parenting, Veenu Keller knows all too well how many kids do not feel they are enough and have low self-esteem.

Veenu has almost every title of mom, and understands the ups and downs of being a mom. The biggest gift she has learned on her journey through motherhood is that being a mama is a sacred gift we are given. When we realize it is not a measuring tool and focus on the connection and the gift, it is an entirely different journey.

Veenu says, “Through my coaching programs, kids open up, learn to know their worth and feel better about themselves. When your child is happy, they excel in all areas of life.”

Drawing upon her experience (professional and personal), Veenu has created a 4 day program called the In-Home TurnAround. This program allows Veenu to move in with a family for 4 days, help bring peace back in the home, empower the parents back in charge and create a more passionate relationship between the parents. Some have even called her the kid/family whisper. Veenu has a dynamic way of getting the kids and parents to be real, raw and vulnerable, which allows Veenu to help not only mend the gaps with their kids and parenting skills, but also the relationship between both parents.

The lessons/gifts Veenu has received from her past have helped her become a huge advocate for making our society BullyProof. In order to do this she speaks at schools, conferences, and any other platform that provides her with an opportunity to teach others how to improve their self-worth, self-esteem and change their story.

Veenu is a best-selling author for the following 2 books:

BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid, as well as her #1 Best –Selling Book Numb. She has been featured on ABC, NBC, FOX, and CW, and has a BS in Psychology.

WPS – Write Print Sell is an online course that teaches authors how to do EXACTLY what Matthew Bennett did to sell over 5 million books…no theory, just tons of content and value in videos and workbooks.  The main focus is to show people how to treat their writing like a lucrative business rather than a hobby, while emphasizing marketing, distribution and execution over content.
