Event: Speak to the human 2023

Harnessing disruption and navigating change: A guide for real humans

7th June 2023 Møller Institute, Cambridge

‘Speak to the human 2023’ will explore the theme of disruption and change. 

Humans don’t like change. But we can’t avoid it. Whether it comes from planned organisational strategy or from the perpetually shifting world around us, we have to find ways to navigate change.

So in our organisations, how can we as leaders and managers better understand the human reaction to uncertainty, and connect with people to help them respond?

Perhaps a little disruption, and a relentless focus on ‘real humans’, can get us a long way. Communication, empathy and social connections matter deeply, but often get side-lined by a focus on logistics and systems.

At this event, we’ll bring together brilliant speakers, share experiences, and unlock creative thinking to open up ideas together.

This years key themes

Join our invited audience as we cover:

  • How to be more human-focused in times of change.
  • What it means to ‘speak to the human’ to help people respond to uncertainty.
  • How a bit of disruptive thinking can help us do this more effectively. And why navigating big change might benefit from us being a little rebellious.
  • How person-centred design can reveal insights that underpin behavioural choices, and how to use those insights to influence positive change.
  • Real examples to place ideas into context.
