Sketchnotes from The CIPD Festival of Work June 2020

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.

Collection of 8 Sketchnotes from CIPD Festival of Work - exhibition, conference & fringe - 2019

Rachel Burnham writes: Last week I visited the first CIPD Festival of Work held at Olympia, London on 12 & 13 June 2019.   The event combines the old L&D Show and HR Software shows and adds a new element covering the Future of Work.  

I had a day of visiting the exhibition and include Sketchnotes from a couple of the free sessions I attended.  On the second day of the conference, I attended a number of formal sessions on a diverse range of topics from reducing digital stress, to how investing in technology can aid productivity, to a series of fast and furious Ignite sessions all on the theme of curation for learning.   I also participated in a fringe event on the first evening of the event, a recording of the GoodPractice Podcast with a panel focusing on the Past, Present and Future of Learning. 

Here are all my Sketchnotes from the event:
