Braving the Change: recalibrating to new realities
Conference (BEGINNER level)

‘Change is the only constant in our industry’… but they never told us it would go this fast. With the recent evolutions in AI, ‘change’ has shifted from a ‘constant’ to something better described as ’exponential,’ sparking excitement for some and existential dread for others.

In this session, we’ll discuss some insights into dealing with change inspired by the real big changes in our lives. We’ll explore the emotional aspects of change, contextualize our relation to change and discuss the 3 essential skills needed to deal with evolving landscapes.

After leaving this session, you’ll be better prepared for whatever change might come on your path, whatever shape that change might be.
