Checked Out: Why Your Best People Are Saving It for Side Hustles After Hours
Have you been noticing that you are saving your best energy for after hours? What about your team?
Engagement is dropping, and more people are channeling their motivation and ambitions elsewhere. If you've felt this, personally or seen it on your team, you're not alone.
On February 18th, we're breaking the silos in tech, bringing together a cross-disciplinary mix of People Ops Leaders, Engineering Managers, and Organizational Psychologists to ask:
What's broken in how we're designing work that makes people want to save their best selves for side hustles after hours?
Our speakers:
• Dr. Joy McClure is a people science consultant with 15+ years in academia and industry, translating behavioral science research into practical strategies. She helps organizations design work that actually supports motivation and engagement.
• Umesh Halappa is a Software Development Manager at Amazon Alexa with over 12 years of experience in software engineering and team leadership. He's cracked the code on bringing creative energy back to his team and organization by staying curious about what they actually care about.
• Richelle Reyes is a talent and organizational development leader with 15+ years designing workforce transformation and culture change for global Fortune 500 companies and growth-stage SaaS startups.
• Arden Schneider is the Chief People Officer at Brainly, the #1 AI education tool serving millions of students worldwide.
This event is brought to you by Technically Human: People, Systems, & Science Alliance - a community for people who refuse to choose between productivity and humanity.
Register to attend this honest, cross-disciplinary conversation about what actually makes work worth showing up for. Because if we're only optimizing for output, we're missing the point entirely.
