What is this workshop about?
In today's fast-paced work environment, being productive, delivering quickly, and failing - okay, but failing fast and learning even faster - are essential rules that govern the work environment.
In this workshop, we will explore the wonders and the thrill of creating something new, and disruptive, of going “Far and beyond” while also considering the negative effects of working non-stop. In a very practical but also comprehensive approach, will explore some of the backstage information regarding our relation with work and how to prevent the adverse effects of doing marathons of what should be sprints. By breaking down stigmas, eliminating barriers and fostering an environment of open communication, we propose to approach this topic without taboos and understand how we can be productive and, at the same time, take care of our mental health and well-being. Join us to discover how you can thrive in this, for most of us, complex relationship with work.
