The future of our work starts with a conversation
About this event
«The creative and UX industry is changing fast. Roles are shifting, tools are evolving, expectations are rising, and many people are asking what their skills will be worth in the future.»
This evening is not a classic Last Thursday Talk. UX Schweiz and Syndicom invite the community to a workshop and open exchange for people working in UX, design, research, strategy, communication and related creative fields.
The focus is especially on people at the beginning of their careers, people in transition, and everyone currently asking: What does the future of our work actually look like? We want to create a space for hopes, concerns, changing roles, useful skills, new tools, AI, career paths and possible forms of support within the community. Uncertainty is allowed, but we do not want to stay stuck in fear.
The evening starts with a short input by Pascal Geronimi. After that, we will work in small groups: collecting thoughts, clustering topics, discussing what matters most, and sharing key insights.
Together, we want to explore:
- What currently gives us hope?
- What feels uncertain or worrying?
- How are roles, tools and expectations changing?
- Which skills and mindsets might become more important?
- What kind of support could UX Schweiz, Syndicom or the wider community offer?
This is an experimental format. Because this is a workshop-style event, places are limited. Please only register if you are quite sure you can attend. If your plans change, please cancel your RSVP so someone else can join.
