Description

Are you jacked-in 24/7? Can you be without your smartphone for an hour? Are you taking calls in the middle of client meetings? Has technology impaired your ability to carry on substantive discussions in person? Technology today tantalizes us with a constant stream of information but are we losing our ability to focus on real people in front of us? The goal of this session is to help you recognize the times when it’s appropriate to put down the smartphone or tablet and take a no-electronic break. Our panelists will help you find an appropriate balance between the necessity of technology and the interaction with real life.
