Welcome to a new working model for community innovation and learning. Join in the conversation as Rising Stars and experienced leaders explore fresh ideas and solutions to today's business critical challenges.
Thankfully, the phrase “Just get on with it!” is fading into deep obscurity as we become a more understanding, caring, safe society. 2020 has prompted much wider awareness of physical and mental health, systematic racism, social injustice, and climate change. As the world changes, the world of work must change, too.

Together we’ll figure out where the buck stops in terms of company responsibility, their duty of care, and the value of human compassion in these strange and confusing times.

Watch NowSHOULD COMPANIES BE STICKLERS FOR THE RULES, OR PURPOSE-DRIVEN RISK-TAKERS?
In a world where business errors are regarded as sloppy, unforgivable, and even self-destructive, sticking to the rules just might be the only way for a company to cover its butt in all eventualities. But is this actually the right way to operate?
This episode’s panel (led by Joe Militello of PagerDuty) challenges companies to shift their perceptions of risk, focusing on learning and growth rather than results and speed, and empowering their employees to drive positive and impactful difference in their organization.
Watch NowA SENSE OF BELONGING: FOSTERING INCLUSION AND CELEBRATING DIFFERENCE
Inclusion is a topic that we can’t discuss enough - yet for many, it’s a topic to shy away from, dismiss as “box-ticking”, or ignore completely. In today’s day and age, that approach simply doesn’t cut it.
Join host Graeme Johnson, Talent Director at Entain (formerly GVC), as he and our panel tackle some of the tougher issues around inclusion, like dealing with poor behavior in the workplace, the importance of measuring inclusivity, and how we can celebrate differences so everybody feels involved.
