Are we truly becoming more innovative—or just faster at doing the wrong things?
During our next webinar, innovation strategist and Nordic Business Forum 2026 speaker Shawn Kanungo explores one of the biggest blind spots in today’s AI-driven world: the illusion of progress. As organizations rush to adopt new technologies, automate processes, and scale faster than ever, many leaders mistake speed for innovation and activity for impact.
Join us as we’ll unpack how AI is reshaping not just how we work, but how we think, decide, and create. Why do some organizations unlock real value; while others get stuck in cycles of constant motion with little transformation?
On 16-17 September, Nordic Business Forum 2026 centers on the theme The Human Edge. Over two days, 11 of the world’s top business leaders and thinkers will share insights on performance, decision-making, and collaboration.
Ahead of the event, we invited selected speakers to reveal their personal performance habits. Which routines help them excel? What habits have they deliberately let go of? And how do they recover to sustain high performance?
Their insights are gathered in this guide, offering an inside look at the routines of true high performers. We hope it inspires you to reflect on your own path to peak performance!
Are we designing a future of work that humans can actually sustain?
In this timely webinar, anthropologist Rahaf Harfoush explores a growing paradox at the heart of modern leadership: as technology makes work more efficient, it also increases the cognitive and creative demands placed on people. The result? Smarter systems, but more exhausted humans.
Together, we’ll examine how the rise of knowledge work, constant connectivity, and AI-driven expectations are reshaping what it means to perform, create, and lead. Why are so many high performers feeling stretched beyond capacity—and what does that signal about the way we work today?
