Keynote: Lessons from the canvas - Dodging the digital wasteland
For digital experiences to suck less... For your website or even digital workplace to stop being so incredibly boring... You need to transform your world of incremental improvements, reliance on CRO tactics, and cut through all internal fights over who gets to have the most pixels on your homepage.
Design thinking and other innovation processes helped. But those methods don't always lead to high-quality digital moments.
This opening keynote will tell you about those who know the most about how to insist on the quality of the end result of your digital experiences.
Are you ready to insist on brilliance and obliterate the boring?

Culture development that works – Towards agile organisational development
Most organizations have started to understand they can’t go on working like in the 90s. But stories of culture change where the organisation really, really changed?
Not so many, and definitely not with change management from the 90s. Time for an update.
I’m going to share how we can look at organizations, how transformation works in complex contexts and how to differentiate symptoms from root problems. But mostly, I’ll take you with me into my experiences from all kinds of rather conservative companies who started the journey – what went well, what red flags to look for?
Prepare for practical insights into principles and levers that help you move an organizational culture - and those you can skip.

Focus and flow: Personal productivity and sustainable pace for all knowledge workers
Many knowledge workers spend their days drowning in inboxes and doing hectic multitasking. This is silly. Because there are several principles and techniques which provide focus and flow. This is called 'Personal Productivity'.
Personal Productivity is about staying on top of all tasks enabling you to prioritise what is important. It is about keeping a calm focus during the day making sure you deliver quality efficiently and make fewer mistakes. It is also about taking breaks and time off ensuring that you thrive and keep your balance.
It is about creating a much better and sustainable employee experience.
In this talk Line Hviid will tell you why Personal Productivity is so important for all knowledge workers. She will also give you a couple of tips and tricks so you can get started as soon as she stops talking.

How to combine talent attraction with employee engagement
The value of your employer brand is your employee experience

In this session we’ll double-click on:
- How to engage employees by giving them the voice of our brand.
