Last events for The PrOPEL Hub
We have greatly enjoyed and benefitted from being part of the major UK-wide people and productivity project led by the University of Strathclyde: The PrOPEL Hub. The work of the Hub will wrap up at the end of June 2024, but we are fitting in a couple more events before then! There are still tickets to book on the Leicester People Management Hackathon and although the Bootcamp is ‘sold out’, you can register an interest in any future events of the same kind by joining the waiting list.
Professor Colin Lindsay takes the opportunity to reflect on our successful event at The Shard earlier in May in this blog: Reflections on Mental Health, Workplace Wellbeing and Productivity (propelhub.org) It also includes the slides from everyone involved, so if you missed the event, you can still catch up on the fascinating breadth of content.
