The Henley Forum 22nd Annual Conference - Sustaining and securing connections in a Hybrid World

Since 2020, we have looked anew at connections. We’ve recognised their vital importance (and their vitality) in enabling enterprises and people to flourish. We’ve grappled with the need for social distance and social connection. We’ve experienced the ups and downs of connecting remotely. We’ve seen both the value and vulnerabilities of digital connection. We’ve experimented with different hybrids of working together remotely and in physical proximity. So, where are we now?

Sustaining and Securing Connections

At the Henley Forum 2022 Annual Conference, we will be exploring a range of perspectives on ‘sustaining and securing connections’, such as:

human connections - for wellbeing and engagement
collaborative connections - for knowledge, learning and innovation
organisational connections (leadership and culture) - for performance
technological connections (information risk and security) - for continuity.

This year, our hybrid format offers choices about how you participate. Whether you choose to be in the room, or to connect remotely, we will help you to make and sustain connections – new people, new ideas, new learning, new insights - to benefit you and your organisation.
