Deceleration: The fastest way to drive social change in business?

Friday, April 3, 2020

Session Description

Markets are in freefall. Businesses are in turmoil. Employees are..indoors – forced out of their offices into the new reality of working (perhaps permanently) from home. With airline travel effectively cancelled, the hamster wheel is slowly coming to a standstill.

After decades of fast-paced prosperity, hierarchical leadership and an all-consuming focus on growth, the world’s workforce is undergoing a period of enforced “deceleration”. On a human level, there is no doubt that COVID-19 represents a crisis of epic proportions. Paradoxically, it could be the catalyst for a new wave of social innovation.

Gib Bulloch, author and former intrapreneur has created the UK’s first “decelerator”, in an effort to drive breakthrough innovation and awaken a generation of changemakers. During this session, Gib and his “cast” of performers from the world of art, improv, music and more, will explore how this period of enforced social distancing, deceleration and self-isolation can:

• Unleash a community and environmental transformation that benefits the future of the planet.
• Drive new ways to collaborate and relate to colleagues for global and social benefit, with a renewed accent on empathy and compassion
• Provide an opportunity for individuals to adapt and grow in new ways to produce a workforce that is more innovative, entrepreneurial and resilient.

Join us and learn how to turn the current crisis into an opportunity for personal development and growth.
