SAVE YOUR SPOT

Work can be one of the greatest sources of satisfaction and meaning in life but for so many, it’s far from that. At Six Senses, we understand that without healthy work, we cannot have a healthy life.

The Great Resignation has expanded to include not only front-line providers but now senior leaders who are quitting. Tolerance is low for toxic workplaces, bosses, and organizations.

Sustainability at work is more than just the materials we use to build our offices and products. It’s also how we manage our internal states, interact with others, communicate, and lead. These are the soft skills that make work sustainable so that we can not only feel our best but also give our best at work.

There are two sides to this conversation, the inner life, and the outer life, or culture.

What do we need to do to cultivate a healthy inner life at work? How do we create healthy cultures for people to thrive?

We’ve brought together three leaders who work with CEOs and teams around the world to explore these questions and share their solutions.

Tal Ben-Shahar will share his latest thoughts on effective strategies to manage today’s unique stresses, using an anti-fragile approach he calls Resilience 2.0. If 1.0 is about bouncing back, 2.0 is about bouncing back higher.

Shauna Shapiro brings in the science and art of self-compassion for navigating toxic or unsafe work environments. Although kindness sounds soft, when you pair it with boundaries and more, it can become one of your greatest superpowers.

Bill Duane has applied his training as an engineer at Google to create tools and practices to re-engineer our inner states and group dynamics so that all members can thrive and be more innovative.
