COVID has created an opportunity to rethink how we want to live and work – flexibility without compromising collaboration, culture without the constraints of location.
We now live in a time where work is no longer defined by where people gather, it’s about how people feel included. The secret to success is not just how we connect, it’s how we satisfy our collective craving to belong.
But how do we achieve shared knowledge, purpose, and a collective sense of belonging when the how, when, where, and why we work has been upended?
TEDxSydney is excited to introduce its new principal partner – Microsoft. Over the coming months TEDxSydney and Microsoft will curate a series of events that explore the new belonging imperative facing leaders as they navigate the biggest shift to how we work in a generation.
