About this event

It's been too long! Let's reconnect as a community and welcome new faces to the Brisbane Culture First Chapter. Join us for an evening of conversation, connection, and insights as we explore the evolving landscape of work-life integration.

In today's digitally connected world, the boundaries between work and personal life have become increasingly blurred. As we navigate these changes, it's crucial to understand how emerging cultural shifts around employee well-being are reshaping our workplaces.
