creativity in the balance:

The strength of our social connections influences our wellbeing, and, in turn, our creative output, as individuals and as groups. Leaders who want to foster a creative and resilient workforce — one that can navigate uncertainty together, while creating business results — understand that connection is a business imperative.

Discover what we're learning at Adobe through our experimental Lab82 program, where we're testing new approaches to fostering connection at work — both in-person and remotely. Weaving in interdisciplinary perspectives on human connection and creativity from our primate origins to modern-day gatherings and rituals, this session helps attendees reckon with how to design a culture of connection for the future of work — and life.
