Session 2 is all about Focus - the superpower of modern work.
This session explores the importance of the skill of focus. We highlight why this skill alone is more critical than ever before in the modern workplace. Most of us recognise that we struggle more in today’s world to concentrate than we used to, but few of us fully comprehend the extent to which we are losing this fundamental skill. We share the science and evidence that is leading researchers and scientists to conclude that the erosion of focus should be one of the top concerns for all businesses. Output: An eye-opening session on a critical skill we take for granted and ways in which we can bring focus back into our armoury.
