Editor’s Thoughts.
The phrase: “If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room” resonates with one of my life hacks which is to always surround myself with people who are or do the things I want to be or do.
Evolutionaries are those who colour outside the lines of “business as usual”. Pushing progress to show us all what is really possible. And by sharing these innovations, we spark everyone’s imagination to dream bigger.
This is the spirit of the annual EBnet Evolutionaries Conference. On our conference page, you’re able to see some of the industry’s leading Evolutionaries who will be sharing their insights at this year’s event (more to be added over the coming days).
One of the Evolutionaries awards entries into the category of employee benefits and advice is Momentum’s hyper-personalisation engine powered by personality science and machine learning that feeds behaviour. The whole intention being to give the right message to the right person at the right time. It is cutting edge global thinking on influencing investment behaviour. (Listen to Paul Nixon’s thoughts on EBnet Stream – under Top Picks).
You can see more Evolutionaries awards entries here. (And you’re still able to enter).
The virtual conference will run from 4 – 8 November, when you will be able to visit the platform, listen to the speakers, watch (and vote for) your favourite Evolutionaries entries and visit various stands – all at your convenience and while earning CPD hours.
Make sure you’re in the right room by registering here.
