Future Dialogs
Our Future Dialogs are the four areas of the Future of Work we want to focus on during the unconference to give this broad topic some structure.
Forget 'Culture eats Strategy for breakfast' - it devours your Growth!
Culture is the most impactful factor for business growth. But where exactly do you start reshaping your company culture?
We cannot hire and fire our way through industry 4.0!
How do we up-skill for future growth when only 13% of Swiss employees think their job will be automated, and 30% did not participate in any learning in 2018?
(Source: Deloitte, Voice of the Workforce Switzerland 2018)
27% of Swiss employees reported critical stress level at work in 2018
Stress at work is a growing tendency. The question is how we deal with the stress that is constant in our lives. How can employers create a culture that allows recovery periods?

Your workforce is not ready for the future!
Most employees today are neither fully engaged nor have companies fully enabled them for the next horizon business models. 7 out of the 10 most critical success factors for digital transformation are people related, a recent McKinsey study shows. From engagement to incentives, everything needs an overhaul. Now, how do you prioritize your next steps?

Structure of the day
Yes, an unconference sounds great! But how do you deliver an unconference for 200 attendees? To ensure high-quality content and maximum participation, we are designing the breakout sessions with you in advance. Instead of doing that early in the morning of the event day as an unconference would do.
Help us define the agenda to tackle your most pressing questions. Submit your ideas while you are registering! The agenda will take its last form about 2 weeks before the event date.
You can download the program here.
