Rachel Burnham writes: Last week CIPD ran its first virtual Festival of Work
with three days of online presentations, panel discussions and Q&A. I participated in all three days and in some
wonderfully inspiring and challenging sessions.
I wasn’t sure whether
I would like a fully online conference, particularly over three days, but I
really enjoyed it. I actually much
preferred it over last year’s ‘sitting in the dark, with headsets on experience’,
which I found profoundly alienating and gave me a splitting headache. This time it was great to have that ‘sitting
in the front row’ feeling. What I would
love CIPD to add to the mix is the chance to chat in small groups with other
people about the sessions – I am sure it would be possible to add this.
I Sketchnoted my way through all the sessions I participated in and shared the resulting Sketchnotes live on Twitter. Here is the full collection for any you missed.

I help individuals and organisations to work and learn
more effectively, particularly though using the tools of Sketchnoting and the
curation of resources. I make use of
Sketchnoting to introduce people to using visuals to aid thinking, working and
learning. I help people to manage for
themselves the information they need to stay up-to-date in their professional
work.
