Digital Overload: Reclaiming Focus in an Always-On World
We live in a world where most of us are exposed to streams of inputs from multiple highly connected and always-on digital communication tools. While these can be convenient, the always-on nature of these tools can exact a toll on our cognitive resources. Does it have to be this way? This talk will take a look at our modern relationship with technology, how we use these tools, and the impact that this has on both our work and our life. By considering our choices, we will explore opportunities to create conditions that support innovative thinking.
