Are you living your life or the life of others? Are you aware of the ways how Nature and Nurturing distract us from being ourselves in the Now?

Dive into an exciting session helping you to find the I in your LIFE by understanding how Logos (our rational thinking), Form (our material attachment) as well as Emotions (our feelings) distract us from our real I. This session combines insights from neuroscience, cognitive behavior, and change theories with guidance for practical application.

How you will benefit from this session:
- Understand the different levels of consciousness
- Become more self-aware and aware of biases
- Increase the level of happiness from within
- Start to live a life by design rather than by default

The physical and psychological well-being of our healthcare workers are being tested during these unprecedented times. The front-lines are delivering heroically but the shock waves from this pandemic could potentially be massive and long-lasting.



Self-care is often the first thing that gets sacrificed when life is hectic and stressful, and people often think that taking time for themselves seems indulgent. But looking after your own well-being is imperative through this challenging time, and to better care for others.


Amidst implications for individuals and collective health, incorporating self-care practices into your daily rituals can help you sustain your well-being in offering your BEST SELF in your daily interactions.




How will the audience benefit from the session?


Understand self-care as a superpower in your caring role
Learn effective ways to reconnect and replenish your reservoir
Ways to build resilience to flow and thrive in disruption

The speed with which business is moving is unprecedented amidst fierce competition in the marketplace. Employees, managers, and leaders are required to produce better and faster results in their respective roles at lightning speed. Professionals get overwhelmed with the amount of content, tasks, and skills to master to perform in their respective job roles.

At the same time, they have to attain mastery in an entirely new set of skills and become proficient in using never-seen-before technologies, processes, or methods quickly. In this research-based talk, you will learn distilled wisdom drawn from best-in-class organizations across 40 industries, interwoven with Dr. Raman’s two decades of experience in accelerating human learning.

This talk will:
- Prepare you for 2021 to leverage opportunities through covid and post-covid recoveries to make your mark.
- Guide you with rare secrets of learning to learn faster in any context and use that to your strategic advantage.
- Equip you with a unique thought process on how to attain mastery in any new professional skill or role quickly.

As a professional, you will learn smart strategies to speed up your professional performance and career at an accelerated rate relative to your peers. As a leader, you will understand how you can develop your teams at an accelerated rate and standout as a differentiated leader.

You will walk out with a framework to steer your learning, performance, and career differently.

We need to be creative to be innovative. But the relentless push to innovate faster is producing a toxic culture that may undermine the whole creative process. In our rush for end results fast, we could ironically be killing the very thing that will lead us to innovation: creativity. Creativity and innovation are not interchangeable words, and it’s important for effective businesses to understand why. In this session, we explore why we need both and the paradoxes behind this that can impact our work.
Innovation is key for organizational transformation - but to prepare for innovation there needs to be both a culture of creativity (at the organization level) and creative thinking mindset and skill development (at the personal level). There are no shortcuts, and this is why many companies that only focus on embracing design thinking, agile, digital, and other innovation activities & tools (such as innovation labs, hackathons, sprints, scrum, and design thinking models) often fail.

This fireside chat with Andrew Grant and Dr. Gaia Grant (the authors of several books including: “ Who killed creativity? and how can we get it back? And “The Innovation Race”) will focus on the potential psychological and neurological blocks to critical and creative thinking, and the practical process leaders can engage in with practical strategies to achieve more innovative results in themselves, their team, and their organization.

Feedback on the AIM/EnactUS event on Mentoring in the Social Sphere.

“It takes a village to raise a child” is an African proverb that is very applicable to mentoring.

Our “village” has never been more necessary than it is today. We live in a fast-paced, instant information, and pressure-packed world.
Mentees also go through different stages in life, play multiple roles, that require different types of mentors, and at times more than one mentor for different parts of their life. Different mentors, with their own unique set of skills and mentoring expertise, can work with mentees to give them a well-rounded and multi-faceted mentoring environment.

This discussion is about collaboration and partnerships you need to build as a mentor with your peers to support your mentee in the best way possible.
