Agenda
Day One – October 28
With 85% of the global workforce reported as disengaged, we are in critical need of a transformative solution to burnout. In this session, we discuss the origin of burnout as it relates to the evolution of human consciousness. The session will outline where we are headed in the next era of work and will end by offering practical ways that attendees can begin shifting their own workplace roles to better suit their gifts, passions, and needs.
At the end of this session, attendees should be able to reiterate a new framework for the origin of burnout as it relates to the evolution of human consciousness, describe the future of work through the lens of an elevated level of human consciousness, and define their own gifts, passions, and needs as we define at least one action step that will enhance their quality of life at work.
