Switching Off To Get Ahead: Discovering the competitive creative advantage of strategic disconnection

In a hyperconnected world, stepping away feels like falling behind. But what if disconnecting is actually the way forward? This discussion explores the power of stillness in a world of noise — how going offline can help you reconnect with your own voice, sharpen your focus, and tap into a deeper, truer creative flow. Because sometimes, your next breakthrough is waiting in the quiet.

This panel will delve into the benefits of deliberate disconnection on creative thinking, how to design personalised "offline time" that fits your schedule, and effective ways to communicate boundaries to clients and teams. Participants will explore how wellbeing practices can enhance creative thinking and discover that some of the best ideas and opportunities often arise when you're not too busy to notice them.

A speaker in black clothing is standing on a stage, giving a presentation to a large audience. A giant screen behind him displays the word 'AHIAUAHA' in black text on a white background. The stage has a warm brick wall and modern white couches with plants. The audience is seated in a darkened room, and some people are taking photos with their phones.
