Business/07 – Dynamics of Memory: How Your Memory Works

1. What Is Memory?

Memory is your brain’s ability to:

Encode (take in information),
Store (retain it), and
Retrieve (recall it when needed).

In business, sharp memory is crucial for:

Remembering facts, figures, names, and strategies.
Learning from past mistakes.
Applying lessons to real-world problems.

2. Types of Memory

Type	Function	Example
Sensory Memory	Very short-term input from senses	Seeing a slide for a second
Short-Term Memory	Holds info for 20–30 seconds	Remembering a phone number
Working Memory	Actively processes information	Doing mental calculations
Long-Term Memory	Stores information for long periods	Recalling business strategies

3. Memory Process: How It Works

Encoding

Turning sensory input into a meaningful mental representation.

Tip: Use mnemonics, chunking, and visualization.

Storage

Maintaining information over time.

Tip: Repetition and connection help consolidate memory.

Retrieval

Accessing stored information.

Tip: Use active recall and spaced repetition.

4. Tips to Boost Business Memory & Learning

A. Use Visualization

Turn data into mental images or mind maps.
Visual memory is stronger than verbal.

B. Spaced Repetition

Review material over increasing intervals.
Example: Learn → Review next day → After 3 days → After 7 days.

C. Connect New Info to Old Knowledge

Create associations.
Example: Link new marketing tactic to an old campaign.

D. Teach Others

Explaining a concept to someone else strengthens your own memory.

E. Sleep & Hydration

Memory consolidation happens during deep sleep.
Dehydration affects focus and memory.

Real Business Example:

A sales manager uses chunking to remember 15 client names by grouping them by region. They also use a mind map of the sales funnel to remember key decision-making triggers. By reviewing this map weekly (spaced repetition), they reduce mistakes and close deals faster.

Bonus: Memory & Emotional Intelligence

Emotional triggers enhance memory retention.
Stories, humor, or personal relevance make business presentations more memorable.
