THE FUTURE OF WORK LAUNCH

 


Redcliffe & Temple BID is delighted to announce its new thought leadership series, providing expert-led seminars and events to influence and inspire our business community.

 

The project was launched in April 2024 with a successful premiere event at EQ Bristol in partnership with hgkc. Our launch event focussed on the future of work, where industry professionals joined us to share their perspectives. The event was hosted by Sarah Owen, featuring keynote speaker Dr Nicola Millard, and panellists: Dr Harriett Shortt, Karl Brown, Sarah-Jane Osborne, and Priya Mistry.

The session focused on people, productivity, and the planet, as Dr Nicola Millard examined the ever-changing world of work. From home working trends to the impact of AI in the workplace, Nicola’s inspiring talk provided valuable insights into workplace trends. Following Nicola’s presentation, we heard from our panellists who gave their valuable perspectives on key questions from our audience and event host, Sarah Owen. We finished the session with an interactive activity led by event partners hgkc, as they gathered real-time data from audience members to assess attendee opinions regarding the future of work.

THE FUTURE OF WORK: THE FUTURE IS HUMAN

 

On 23rd January 2025, we hosted a follow-up event in the Future of Work series, The Future Is Human: A People First Approach. In partnership with hgkc, this event took place at We The Curious and focussed on three key themes: employee experience, leaders of the future, and workplace demographics. The morning began with an interactive led workshop from the team behind MindHarp, a music-based mindfulness app. This activity explored the power of music in relation to our connectivity and how working in unison can enhance our working relationships. This was followed by a fascinating talk from keynote speaker Dr Caroline Clark that focussed on her personal insights into developing leaders of the future and connecting with the younger generation. This inspiring talk was followed by a Q&A session where the panel gave expert opinions on questions from the event host and audience members. The event finished with an absorbing ‘fireside chat’ about inclusion, employee experience, and collaborative working with representatives from Babbasa.

The event was hosted by Jacky Leonard (DISCsimple) and the panel consisted of Professor Melissa Gregg (University of Bristol), Ric Hill (CTO Ghyston), Lucy McKerron (Purple Fish) and Sangeetha Wynter (Babbasa), featuring special guest, Al Qazzally Ali (Babbasa).
