The Haskayne School of Business is pleased to present the 5th edition of the Haskayne Business Exchange: Investing in the Age of AI- Charting Alberta's Future. Join us for research driven talks and an industry panel discussion.
This session explores how presence and play can reduce overthinking, prevent burnout, and support clearer, more creative collaboration. Through grounding practices and LEGO Serious Play, we’ll work with the body as a compass.
Join us as we explore a groundbreaking approach to software ideation and prototyping, one that doesn't rely on traditional text prompts or pixel-pushing and avoids automating human creativity.
