Connected, Not Consumed

Modern work rewards constant availability, fast replies, and full calendars while quietly destroying focus, decision quality, and health. Most teams aren't failing from lack of effort. They're drowning in reaction — jumping between Slack, email, and meetings without ever doing the work that actually matters.

In this keynote, Nic draws on his own experience with corporate burnout and two decades of building companies to show how high-performing teams protect their attention without disconnecting from the work. He introduces practical frameworks for deciding what matters, filtering noise, and creating team norms that reward deep work over performative busyness.

This isn't about going offline or abandoning technology. It's about building intentional habits that let your team stay connected to what matters and disconnected from what doesn't. Your team will leave with tools they can use Monday morning to reclaim their focus and their energy.
