9:15 – 10:15 | Plenary Session | FOCUS | presented by Ethan Glessich Our jobs demand more concentration, precision and lateral thinking than ever before, but it has become almost impossible to focus at work these days. And it’s only getting worse. Social media giants now employ armies of engineers, psychologists and scientists aimed at finding new ways of keeping our attention in their apps. Collaboration tools have exploded, unleashing an avalanche of notifications and robbing us of deep focus. As marketers relentless test new ways capturing our concentration and influencing our behaviour, it’s no wonder we end each day feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated and exhausted.But today, we level the playing field. Today, we strike back. Today, we help you use the same science these corporations have been using against you—the science of focus—to give you unprecedented access to this critical cognitive function to unleash your full potential. Take a breath and join us on a journey into the intricacies of your brain’s focus system. Be ready for a few surprises as we push your attention to its limits, reveal the true capabilities and constraints of concentration, and offer practical brain-based tools that you can apply immediately to transform your focus, your business, and maybe… your entire life. It’s time to focus on focus. | Plenary | Auditorium | |||
