2018 ANNUAL HUMANISTIC MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE THEME: TECHNOLOGY, SUSTAINABILITY, HUMANITY
The 2018 Sixth Annual Humanistic Management Conference will take place on October 1st – 2nd in Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore), India, hosted by CMR University.
No life will be left untouched by the digital revolution which brings both, great opportunities as well as risks and both, the opportunities as well as the risks are frequently connected to questions of sustainability and the desirability of consequences technology brings to humanity.
The theme of the 2018 Sixth Annual Humanistic Management Conference therefore is Technology, Sustainability, Humanity and where better to discuss this topic than in one of the world’s prominent tech hubs, Bengaluru, India on the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi, one of the most impactful voices of a life in dignity for all.
The aim of this conference is to enhance our understanding of the relationship between technology and Humanistic Management and provide a platform for exchange to our highly esteemed speakers, guests and conference delegates.
To this end we have built an interactive programme spanning two days to offer you keynotes, workshops, paper sessions, panels, ample networking opportunities and the launch of the Humanistic Management Network India Chapter. We are most grateful to our hosts and sponsors CMR University in Bengaluru, India and the Weltethos Institute at the University of Tübingen, Germany for their generous support.
Come join us – together we make impact towards a more sustainable and more equitable planet. On behalf of everyone at the Humanistic Management Network we look forward to welcoming you in Bengaluru.
