Our friends in the Professional Women’s Network (PWN) have kindly invited MBAAI members to a breakfast event at Cpl in Dublin on 11 February, at which Barry Winkless, author of the breakthrough new book Future Work World, will deliver a keynote on the mindsets needed to design destination organisations for all that will entice, excite and engage.
In his talk Barry will dive deep on why strategic inclusive design is the next wave of workplace innovation and why we all need to think like a lot more like destination designers and learn powerful principles from unexpected places.
Barry Winkless, Cpl’s Executive Strategy Advisor and Head of Future of Work Institute, has over 19 years of experience working across multiple sectors in the areas of strategy, service excellence, and Innovation. In his new book, he delivers a practical strategy guide for attracting, retaining, and empowering the talent you need to drive your business forward. Barry describes the contemporary reality of work, how it is evolving, and how it represents a new opportunity for leaders to create organisations capable of innovation and growth. He explains how to straddle the challenge of building a company that is both a hyper-efficient machine and a healthy living organism.
This event is free to MBAAI members, who may bring a guest. By registering you agree that your details be shared with PWN.

This virtual session with Interview and Candidate Assessment Specialist Sinead English of Hilt is designed to help hiring managers, HR leaders and senior decision-makers understand what has changed now that AI has become part of the hiring process for candidates and employers — not just operationally, but ethically,
legally and reputationally.
As AI tools are increasingly used when hiring and interviewing organisations are now exposed to new forms of risk:
Regulatory scrutiny under the EU AI Act
Ethical and bias risk
Erosion of candidate trust
AI-enabled candidate fraud. When interviewing candidates all may now not
be as it seems…..

Event Details
Over 160 billion times a day, someone taps a like button. How could something that came out of nowhere become so ubiquitous—and even so addictive? How did this seemingly ordinary social media icon go from such a small and unassuming invention to something so intuitive and universally understood that it has scaled well beyond its original intent? This is the story of the like button and how it changed our lives. In Like, bestselling author and renowned strategy expert Martin Reeves and coauthor Bob Goodson — Silicon Valley veteran and one of the originators of the like button — take readers on a quest to uncover the origins of the thumbs-up gesture, how it became an icon on social media, and what’s behind its power.
