Dealing with Polarisation in the Workplace
We live in a world that is highly polarised. Young people think this is the first time this has happened – they are experiencing Government intervention, vaccination mandates and control. Yet this is not the first time our generations have faced global upheaval and polarisation. Indeed, it has happened at least 33 major times in the last century.
When polarisation happens, it is usually your tribe polarised with another. This time the polarisation is within the tribe. Work colleagues, teammates, families, friendships, relationships – all are experiencing polarisation within their own tribes. So, what happens to a team or an organisation where there is a high level of polarity? How do you manage through this?
In this presentation, Dr. Catriona Wallace, explores the concept of United Polarity, where the existence of polarised positions, although seemingly counter, actually can work to produce a stronger team.
Key Takeaways:
AI is the fastest-growing tech sector in the world, driving the digital transformation of both public and private sector organisations.
Leaders are asking what is the best way to transform operations to leverage AI and other emerging technologies such as blockchain, IoT, cybersecurity, 5G, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality?
And what role do humans play in a digitised business and economy?
The need for this knowledge has been exacerbated by the pandemic. Dr. Wallace presents the state of the market for AI and emerging technologies and shares how organisations should think about the Digital Transformation of their current operations and people.
Key takeaways:
As evidenced in the hit film, ‘The Social Dilemma’ big tech is controlling much of what we consume, read, like and do. But does the technology sector have our best interests at heart?
Are the commercial drivers for technology not aligned to individual and society’s values? And who is regulating this largely uncontrolled sector and what can we do about it?
In this presentation, Dr. Wallace discusses the role of big tech, the good and the bad, and how models of Responsible Technology with Ethics and Human Rights at its core and the rise of the ‘Ethical Leader’ must be the way forward.
Key takeaways:
Including: Human + Machine,The Dangers of Gender Bias and Educating for the Future
