What does the future of learning look like, and how are we enabling success in a rapidly changing world?
Our capacity to learn, unlearn and relearn is already our greatest asset. In this keynote, Louka explores the changing landscape of work, learning and society, outlining global shifts and what they mean for our learning ecosystems in an ever more interconnected and uncertain world.
To thrive, we all need skill sets and mindsets that take advantage of emerging opportunities, adapting in ways that integrate and apply new knowledge to promote engagement across cultures, domains and languages.
In the learning future we must embrace concepts around change, curiosity, wholeness, questioning, weaving key insights from across the globe with the real world context of organisations, schools and teams.

The Purpose Motive
How do we truly unlock human potential through purpose driven learning and work?
Only a purpose-infused workplace enables all employees to be highly adaptive for a life of learning and work.
As leaders of organisations and learning communities, it’s only when we inspire ourselves to move beyond old mental models that we can return to the most human of experiences: connectedness, creativity, agency and joy, and create a new vision of success.

Cultures that have an innovation imperative are more creative with a greater level of connectedness and psychological safety. Combining thinking from a disciplined approach to creativity and design thinking, this session will enable participants to reflect on the experiences and environments that they create.
The Leading Future
What kind of leadership practices enable us to take advantage of the opportunities to change our organisations and the world?
It’s the 2020s. Old school authority is over. Routine jobs are going and so is the leadership style. Creating an environment that is innovative and positive has never been more important.
It’s not easy for us to lead well in today's complex world, yet we know we need to create positive and abundant workplaces where people can bring their unique creativity, collaborate to solve problems and contribute to a vision they helped create.
