We’re gathering clients, partners, and fellow learning and people development enthusiasts for a relaxed evening at our beautiful London office, complete with an outdoor terrace perfect for mingling as the sun goes down.
We’ll kick things off with inspiring talks, featuring real stories, practical takeaways, and a glimpse into what’s next in our industry. We’re really excited to have Dave Trevaskus from The LEGO Group with us, sharing how a simple act of play can empower us to take our learning, innovation, and performance to the next level. That’s followed by a panel discussion with Gordon Weston from VodafoneThree, Tejal Shah from Kantar and Victoria Payne from Fitch Group, all seasoned L&D and senior leaders passionate about empowering people and delivering impact. We’ll round off the talks with a quick presentation from our very own Tori Pope and Thomas Niven, showcasing some examples of real-world impact through Attensi solutions, with a hint of more to come.
