HOLD THE DATE May 30 – 31: 24-hour online rebel jam

 

Innovation-exploding-head

Only creative rebel thinkers would hold a free, online 24-hour Rebel Jam with new speakers, inspiring entertainment and provocative discussions every hour, with hosts from Europe, North America and Asia.

There’s such a global groundswell of interest in how rebels can positively change business, government, education, healthcare and the world itself, that we thought it was time for rebels to share their stories and practices with as many people in the world as possible, in the easiest, least expensive way.

All you’ll need is to be able to connect to the Internet and clear your calendar.  Thanks to the generosity of Cisco, which is providing WebEx technology to us, we are able to do this jam free of charge.

You can tune in any time – or all 24 hours if you’re one of the crazy ones – to learn from thought leaders and Rebels about:

  • What are the big shifts that require our organizations to respond in fundamentally different ways to achieve dramatically higher levels of velocity
  • What has helped Rebels to be successful?
  • Set backs and obstacles Rebels experienced and how they’ve navigated through them.
  • Habits that help them stay creative, positive and respected.

There will be time after each speaker for questions and conversations to encourage as much learning and camaraderie as possible in an online way. We’ll also be inviting performers and artists to share and perform their work with us to fill our rebel spirits, and just have some fun.

The conference kicks off on May 30 at noon in Europe/6 a.m. North America East Coast; 3 a.m. North America Pacific, and 8 p.m. Sydney.

If you’re interested in speaking or performing, please contact Peter (p.vanderauwera@gmail.com) from Corporate Rebels United or Lois Kelly (lkelly@foghound.com) from Rebels at Work. We will soon reach out to thought leaders, rebels, and performers and provide an updated 24h schedule of activities.

So for the time being, HOLD THE DATES!

24h Rebels Jam: a joint initiative of Corporate Rebels United and Rebels At Work

  1. hi peter,

    reading your post sparked some thoughts:

    the Institute for the Future recently ran a 24-hour forecasting/visioning session to collect ideas about the future of citizenship and civic engagement

    Global Service Jams are 48 hour events to develop and prototype new services inspired by a shared theme

    i wonder how your Rebel Jam might incorporate these formats, ideation + development, so your global gathering goes beyond speakers or even discussions, but actually building new cultural models for change that can be implemented and experimented with…… then you could do a Rebel Jam Retrospective at a predefined later date, where the action-oriented rebels could share their learnings about what worked and didn’t work, and iterate from there to the next Jam.

    might be an interesting experiment in the value creation process, while also developing a transformation-focused community of practice
