Presentation
It’s time to move away from the tired old approaches to work. It’s time to stop feeling exhausted, aimless and inauthentic. It’s time to get off the hamster wheel of stress and overwhelm. It’s time to start listening to the small, still voice within that’s telling you there must be a different way. The old paradigm of how we work is in need of an overhaul. Most of us are overwhelmed, over-tired and over it. In this keynote Dr Gemma Munro paints a new and very doable paradigm: one that involves flowing not forcing, creating not conforming, playing not working, and plugging yourself in not wearing yourself down. She shares the two main shifts to create a wild new way of working, and provides clear action steps under each shift. You’ll leave feeling re-energised, empowered and inspired to change how you go about your work.
