About Agnes Misiurny

Agnes Misiurny is a seasoned Design Thinker, with a global background in experience design, product management and start-ups. Starting her career as a human-centred designer, she transitioned her empathy for the user from usability into product design, ensuring people needs are met. Having utilised this approach at start-ups, she then converted into consulting to large organisations on how to make fast, customer-centric decisions.

As the Consulting Director for Innovation at UST, Agnes consults to CXOs and boards on sustainable innovation operating models. Using Design Thinking as the core methodology, she preaches the importance of focusing on the problem and human insights, not the solution and experimentation while testing ideas. Her main interest is ensuring innovation becomes a reality through the lenses of human desirability, business viability and technical feasibility.

Sporting a very mixed accent, Agnes has lived in 4 countries and is an avid traveller having visited over 35 countries. She does admit that most of the travel is to taste new foods she can add to her repertoire when hosting friends. She lives in Melbourne with her partner and 3 crazy dogs.

SponsoredBusiness transformation in a hybrid world

Speaking with: Robert Gaunt – Co-founder & Director, EPiC Agile; Matthew McCormack – Managing Director, UST; Paul Velonis – Chairman & CEO, Elabor8

A hybrid working environment is here to stay. To meet the changing needs of employees and customers, organisations are rethinking their operating models, their use of technology and even the design of their physical office spaces. But hybrid work isn’t just about finding the right digital tools and workspaces. Organisations need to carefully consider the nuances of a blended work environment.

As organisations undergo the necessary transformation, a key theme that has emerged is how to ensure authentic collaboration. Much has been written on the importance of culture to ensure a successful digital transformation. But what is less understood are the potential long-term impacts of a fragmented, hybrid ecosystem on an organisation’s culture and sense of community.

So, how do you create and maintain a sense of community in a hybrid world?

This question is especially relevant to how digital transformation programs are designed and delivered, if they are to scale sustainably and inclusively.

In this panel discussion hosted by UST’s ANZ Managing Director, Matthew McCormack, special guests will discuss the latest research, trends and global examples to offer insights into the complexities and nuances of hybrid work.

Attend this session to discover:

  • How hybrid work is impacting businesses in Australia and around the world
  • The pros and cons of hybrid work, such as loss/increase of productivity and the mistrust of managers
  • How to overcome loneliness and create greater camaraderie within your team
  • Ideas, solutions and processes you can trial and adopt to become more Agile in a hybrid world.
