What’s your favourite app? The resources 5 leaders are tapping into in 2020
What’s your current favourite app? Who would have thought that one question sent to all speakers due to appear at the HR and L&D Innovation Tech Fest - DIGITAL would come back with so many different answers? So many apps so little time.
As they prepare to talk big ideas for leading the HR and L&D industries into 2021, five speakers share with us their go-to app, book, world leader and the memo they wish they had left for their 2019 selves.

You’re writing a quick Post-it Note to your 2019 self about 2020 – what does it say?
Michael Vaz: Stay strong, believe right, you are more blessed with an incredible life than you believe!
Thomas Møller Lybæk: Make sure to take your time off and travel to the places you would want to go.
Bernd Zimmerman: It was not the CEO, not a Business School, not the CTO or a Consultancy that drove digitalisation, leadership development and business model innovation – it was COVID-19! Good that you never accepted a “no” in 2019 and pushed for more!
Susie Gleeson-Byrne: Tough times are ahead – stay calm and stay true to your values.
