HR is having a moment—but it’s not just about AI.
AI is a powerful signal. But it’s arriving inside a much larger shift—one that touches how people experience work, grow in their careers, relate to each other, and trust the systems around them.
This PopUpThinkTank session is an invitation for People leaders to step back—and see the whole.
Using the Integral Map, we explore how technology, culture, individuals, and systems are deeply interconnected—and why focusing on any one area alone (even AI) limits our impact.
This isn’t a call to abandon innovation.
It’s an opportunity to lead it more humanely, wisely, and holistically.
Designed for people who got into HR because they care about growth, development, learning, and engagement—this session offers language, legitimacy, and a bigger map for navigating what’s next.
Come curious. Leave grounded.
And connect to others while reconnecting to why this work matters.
Get the setup.
In minutes, you’ll be briefed on a challenge many are thinking about but no one’s solved.
Tackle it together.
Bring your ideas, your instincts, and your hard-won wisdom—no pressure to talk in front of a large group.
Leave connected.
Walk away with new insights, new allies, and a co-created resource you’ll want to share.

3 Session Design Principles
-
Max Value in Minimal Time
🧭 Tight structure, expansive outcomes
→ Creativity loves constraints. A compressed 90-minute session—but with pacing, clarity, and purposeful transitions creates space for expansive thought. The result: sharp focus without fatigue, and momentum without dilution. -
Participation Without Pressure
🧩 Multiple ways to show up.
→ We designed for contribution without obligation. Insight rounds and breakout moments offer space for different voices to enter—without requiring everyone to speak to the whole group. This supports inclusion, honors psychological safety, and invites both introverts and extroverts to meaningfully engage. -
Momentum Over Resolution
⚡ Design for movement, not final answers.
→ We don’t push for consensus. Instead, we generate energy, alignment, and individual-level next steps. A closing engagement survey captures what stuck, what sparked, and what’s next—so teams leave with traction, not just discussion.
Momentum for moments that matter.
30+ Thinkers. 90 Minutes. 100s of Ideas & Connections. 1 Challenge.
Experiences that build communities around entrepreneurs and projects that solve problems and make a difference.
