Dear All,
Thank you again for attending the course on Digital Resilience in a Hybrid Working and Evolving Digital World at IIM Kashipur in August 2024.
As mentioned at the end, I recommend challenging yourself to do the “iPhone effect” (see research notes below). For one day try relationship/friends/family time with no other devices in line of sight and see how it makes you feel. This will allow you to learn more about your relationship with technology. Remember, it’s all about you being in control as opposed to tech being in control of you!
