Topics, sessions and talks
Sleep deprivation has become a global epidemic in an increasingly fast-paced and hyper-connected world, devastatingly affecting every aspect of our health, performance, and relationships. In her New York Times bestselling book, The Sleep Revolution, Thrive Global Founder, and CEO Arianna Huffington offers a sweeping exploration of sleep, from its rich history to the latest science, emphasizing how it can transform our lives. Through personal stories and specific, science-backed tips and recommendations, Huffington addresses the most critical issues with her audience: why we sleep, why we need it, what happens when we don’t get enough, and how to get more – so we can take control of our lives and live more fully.
Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO of Thrive Global, emphasises that culture acts as a company’s immune system, enabling resilience during change and uncertainty. She will share strategies for building mental resilience, fostering a culture of engagement and purpose, and rebuilding social capital in a hybrid environment. Attendees will learn how to enhance organisational efficiency, productivity, and employee well-being, ensuring their organisations thrive even in disruptive times.
Chronic diseases and mental health conditions are draining 90% of the us’s $4.3 trillion healthcare budget, exposing the limitations of traditional medical care and emphasizing the need for proactive health management. So, what’s the secret to effectively combating illness and proactively protecting our health? It’s Our daily behavior.
Too many leaders still buy into the misguided notion that chaotic times require them to be in constant motion and always on or that they have to match the frenetic pace of the moment. As New York Times bestselling author and Thrive Global founder, and CEO Arianna Huffington writes, “In fact, the opposite is true — the best way to lead a company forward is by looking inward. It is judgment that we need from leaders in moments of crisis, not just stamina.” In this engaging talk, Huffington reveals how leaders can go inward and tap into the innovative and creative ideas that the times demand.
