CONNECT is a high-value forum that creates meaningful exchange of ideas and valuable connections between internal L&D/OD professionals and leading experts. It’s where shared passions meet practical insights, creating the conditions for collaboration and growth.
This year, CONNECT (our 25th) returns with renewed energy, focusing on how AI is transforming the future of learning, leadership, and organisational development. Through roundtables, face-to-face meetings, and curated networking, participants will explore AI-enabled learning, experiential development, and the evolving dynamics of hybrid teams. More than an event, CONNECT is a catalyst for shaping the future of work by putting humans back at the centre.
I am delighted to announce our first two speakers!
Professor John Grisby who will explore that whilst external shocks are unavoidable, it’s internal capability that is the decisive factor that determines whether organisations fail or thrive.
Dr Ines Wichert who is a Leadership expert and author of ‘Accelerated Leadership Development, How to Turn Your Top Talent into Leaders’.
This one-day event will take place at the beautiful Reading Town Hall and is just 4 minutes’ walk from the train station, part of the Elizabeth Line. This historical landmark, which dates from 1786, will be the perfect location for another insightful day. The day will commence at 09:15 and conclude at approximately 15:45.
Lunch and all refreshments are included.
