MJ dives into why the future of work belongs to those who can truly demonstrate how they work together,  across teams, technologies, and time zones. Come ready to question what “collaborative” really means.
What if collaboration isn’t something we do, but something we allow ourselves to become?
MJ Hill believes the future of work belongs to organisations that connect before they perform.
In a world obsessed with speed, efficiency, productivity hacks and AI shortcuts, it’s easy to forget that progress has always been a human pursuit. MJ has spent years exploring what truly makes teams thrive – and it isn’t endless meetings, strategy decks or surface-level “team building.” It’s connection. Real connection. The kind that strengthens trust, elevates thinking and unlocks collective intelligence.
Through her work with Yakbit, she has seen that collaboration is not a soft skill – it’s a smart strategy. When teams feel psychologically safe, when voices are genuinely heard, and when co-creation replaces ego, performance doesn’t just improve – it transforms. Her talk challenges leaders, managers and teams to rethink how they show up for one another, long before they show up for the work.
This is not collaboration as a buzzword. This is collaboration as a culture. A discipline. A choice.
