Stand firm: Resisting the self-improvement craze
In today’s accelerating culture, we are expected to constantly develop our skills, our identities, and our personalities. Endless change increasingly appears to be the only constant in modern life with performance reviews, coaching, and self-optimization. In this talk, Svend Brinkmann asks whether we may have reached the limits of how much flexibility and adaptability human beings can sustain. What happens to integrity, loyalty, and mental health when individuals are expected to be in permanent self-development? And what happens with the introduction of AI: Will this accelerate the pace even more, or can we maintain a space for deeper kinds of thinking?
