About the event.

In October 2022, YuLife introduced a new slack status update, “Not feeling 100%”. This simple wellbeing initiative has sparked an international debate on social media and so we’re excited to be gathering this group of HR leaders to continue the conversation as we ask what a positive workplace culture looks like today.


Join us on Wednesday 7th December at 1pm to hear from:

  • Lauren Gomes, Head of People Experience at Learnerbly
  • Ewen Macpherson, Chief People Officer at Havas
  • Claire Cathcart, Head of People at YuLife


We’ll be discussing:

  • How to build a workplace culture where employees can be vulnerable and open with each other
  • How to give employees flexibility, without encouraging presenteeism
  • How to engage your employees in a hybrid working world
