On the program of this major annual HEC Alumni event on the "Future of Work": conferences, workshops, speed-coaching and networking to think about our work, get inspired, explore and experiment.

So how can we take action and make a concrete commitment? This is an exploration that we propose to share with you during this 2023 Festival!

Thinking differently: innovation, leadership and diversity – an interactive discussion with professors Anne-Valérie Corboz and Shaheena Janjuha-Jivraj
As innovation is up front and center for most organizations, knowing how to unlock new ideas and thinking is a new area of learning for leaders and their teams. Creating innovative cultures is not a plug and play approach, however successful organizations share traits that make innovation more accessible and part of their DNA.
In this session Prof Anne Valerie Corboz and Dr Shaheena Janjuha-Jivraj explore how to leverage on diversity to generate new ways of thinking for today’s problems. You will understand how to strengthen cultures of belonging, consciously develop a leadership approach that nurtures creativity and a learning environment for high performance.
> This discussion will be followed by a networking cocktail.
Location: HEC UK House (hybrid) - 43 Parker Street, London WC2B 5PS (and broadcast online)
> Monday 17th April - 12.30pm-1.30pm (London Time) - ONLINE:
Women in midlife; from surviving to thriving
Why do we need to focus on women in midlife (surely men have at least some of the challenges listed below as do younger women)? We have never had so many women in the work place globally in leadership roles in mid to later life. And yet many of those women are feeling burned out, weighed down often by the shadow work of organisations, caring responsibilities, changing health (peri-menopause/menopause), changing relationships (eg divorce, bereavement) but are unsure or even unaware of how they can help themselves.
If the above resonates with you, please join us for an hour’s session where we explore the importance for women in midlife of transitions, purpose, legacy and impact and what small (or large) steps you might take to start going from surviving to thriving in midlife.
With Rebecca Hill, Founder, Wise Sherpa (HEC 2008 Coaching and Consulting for Change) and Philippa Gillström, Founder & CEO, Hugin Consulting AB.
> Tuesday 18th April - 12.00pm-1pm (London Time) - ONLINE:
Accidental excluder or Deliberate includer: How to bring your team to its full potential?
In this masterclass, Vanessa Barros, PhD, will introduce the richness of diversity and the need for inclusion to benefit from employees’ full potential. She will present how our “narrative” brain is wired to fear anything that is different and how we need to practice our “experience” brain to avoid stereotypes, judgment and biases. If we don’t deliberately include, we accidentally exclude. Importantly, Vanessa Barros will introduce simple inclusive tools to manage diversity harmoniously.
With Vanessa Barros, PhD, writer, personal advisor, senior executive trainer and researcher.
> 18 and 19 April
Benefit from individual support during a 30-minute online speed-coaching* with one of our professional coaches.
Included in the FESTIVAL PASS, subject to availability.
