Mobilising Generation Numb:  
A radical rethink of people enablement in an era of uncertainty. 

ROUNDTABLE  |  October 16th  |  8am Pacific  |  11am Eastern   |  4pm UK

Workforces everywhere are showing the same signals: exhaustion, detachment, cynicism, and a loss of connection. This is Generation Numb. A workforce shaped not by age, but by shared experience: sustained uncertainty, digital saturation, and relentless change. Leaders who ignore this reality risk stalled transformation. Those who understand it gain a powerful advantage. 

The new Sponge whitepaper, Mobilising Generation Numb, outlines both the malady and the remedy. It shows how today’s emotionally fatigued workforce can be re-energised through a staged approach: meeting personal priorities, restoring authentic connection, and breaking through apathy to reignite belief in the mission. 

In this roundtable, host Myles Runham (Senior Analyst at The Fosway Group) will be joined by Josh Cardoz, (CCLO at Sponge), and Lori Niles-Hofmann (Founder and Tech-Strategist at 8Levers), Melissa Marts (Senior Director, Enterprise Capability at The Coca-Cola Company), Marshall Walker Lee (Director, Head of Customer Education at Atlassian), and Jeffrey Fedak (Director at Deloitte). Together, they'll unpack the whitepaper’s findings and explore practical ways to turn resistance into momentum.

You'll learn how to:  

• Build trust when your people are hardened against corporate promises.
• Restore connection in a workforce that's hyperconnected yet isolated.
• Break through numbness to reignite belief in the mission.
• Convert inertia into the energy that drives real transformation. 

Now's the time for radical listening.

Leaders who take this seriously will unlock the strategic muscle that separates thriving organisations from the rest.
