You are invited to a talk that will build your vision for work that’s worth it, introduce you to Whole Value workshops and launch a new book, "A Life’s Work. Finding meaningful value in everyday work".
Have you ever struggled to find an answer to the question “what value do you bring to the world?” We live in a world where we simplify value to a number. In doing so, we’ve lost sight of the greater picture and the true impact of how we affect our world and those around us for the better. This can make our day-to-day work seem futile and meaningless.
But what if we changed the lens we look through to see the Whole Value of our work? This event will help you see the range of value we can be adding in everyday work which brings meaning, purpose and joy.
It will also introduce practical tools you can use to map the whole value your team or organisation is generating and expand your vision for work worth doing.
The evening will feature:
- Discussion with young entrepreneurs who are featured in the book, A Life’s Work.
- Keynote by Andrew Baughen expanding our vision for value and introducing Whole Value.
- Panel of industry experts highlighting how we can apply this new view of value as individuals and organisations.
- Taster of the Whole Value workshop and opportunity to buy copies of A Life’s Work.
