Balancing Performance & Wellbeing in the Evolving Future of Work
Why the Old Work-Life Balance Model is Failing Us
The idea of “work-life balance” is outdated - but what’s the alternative? Professionals today are expected to deliver high performance while maintaining personal wellbeing, yet few are taught how. Anna Lundberg introduces a practical framework for work-life integration, helping leaders and teams set boundaries, optimise energy, and create a sustainable way of working. Expect insightful re-frames, real-world examples, and practical takeaways to make work-life integration a reality.
Breaking the Cycle: Why Working Harder Won’t Accelerate Your Success
Women are often told that success comes from working harder, pushing further, and taking on more. But the real problem is the assumption that progress must come at the cost of wellbeing, relationships, or fulfilment. In this keynote, Anna Lundberg challenges the myth that busyness equals impact, explores why traditional career advice is failing women, and reveals the real drivers of sustainable success. Expect powerful insights, actionable strategies, and inspiration to accelerate your career - without burnout or personal sacrifice.
Attention, Energy & Focus: The New Productivity Skills for a Hybrid World
With constant digital distractions, endless meetings, and blurred work-life boundaries, traditional time management strategies no longer work. In this talk, Anna Lundberg introduces science-backed techniques to help professionals manage energy, sharpen focus, and work smarter—without working longer. Attendees will leave with simple, actionable strategies to enhance productivity while maintaining wellbeing in a fast-paced, hybrid work environment.
Why the 9 to 5 Model No Longer Works (And What Comes Next)
For decades, success has been defined by climbing the corporate ladder, working longer hours, and making personal sacrifices. But today, professionals want more flexibility, autonomy, and fulfilment - and businesses that don’t adapt risk losing top talent. Anna Lundberg explores how leaders and organisations can rethink career progression, redefine success, and create work environments where employees thrive. Attendees will walk away with a reimagined vision of success and practical steps to build careers and workplaces fit for the future.
