Next up: Beyond 9 to 5 - what is the meaning of work for you?
Loving the idea of Meaning Lab Tools to map meaning at work. A great activity for our Senior People Professional learners to do, to map critical points of meaning in their organisations.

First session of the day is Navigating the future: The skills agenda and why does it matter? @CIPD
Key takeaway: Only 40% of the workforce intends to upskill in the coming year, despite the widening skills gap, particularly in digital competencies.

Spoke to someone earlier who suggested that there's no need to explain the Kubler-Ross model as a change tool because

Fantastic research day at the Uni of York, my alma mater, meeting up with my collaborator Tina.
She indulged me and let me re-live memories from the early 2000s.
20yrs have passed. York has changed. But, actually, it's still the same 🥰♥️ The spaceship is still standing 🤣🤣

Some key opportunities and challenges in the upcoming election, meaning policy forum members have the chance to really make a difference to the future of work.
