What makes you really happy and what do you value most in life? Positive psychology is the scientific study of how people and organisations are enabled to realise their potential optimally. If our brains are in a positive state, we are more productive and accurate. Our happiness is not only the result of our DNA and our environment, but also of the choices we make every day. Learn in this interactive session what you can do to create a happier life for yourself.
The Importance of Being Human in Digital Times
This session is an invitation to consider our relationship with ourselves, with others, and how digital technologies impact our capacity to be, to know, and to do. It is not a session about technology. It is about what we as humans risk losing as we live increasingly technology-centered lives. On offer is also advice for how to reclaim and honor our fundamental human needs and capabilities. The goal of our shared exploration is not to be alarmist, or to make ourselves depressed, or to reject technology, but rather to increase our awareness and capacity to be human with each other, when and where it matters most.
