About this event

This event is designed for independent HR and L&D professionals to come together, share experiences, and forge meaningful connections.
  • Introduction to Nancy Cline methodology
  • Networking with conversation starters
  • Group discussions around current challenges and opportunities face by independent HR & L&D practitioners
  • Better ways of working and taking action
  • Close and final networking


Inspired by Nancy Kline's research “Time to think”, which focuses on how we can create the right environment to ignite each other’s thinking, we will explore opportunities for building our IPG peer support networks to support one another in creating space for thinking, feeling, and possible solutions for our clients.

During the networking gathering, we'll engage in light conversation, exchange insights, and perhaps even spark new collaborations.
