Dr Anastasia Dedyukhina is a coach, TEDx speaker, Huffington Post blogger and author of Homo Distractus. She got rid of her smartphone as well as her senior international career in digital marketing, when she realised how dependent she had become on her gadget. She eventually set up Consciously Digital, a London-based consultancy that helps people develop a healthier relationship with technology. She is frequently quoted in the international press talking about tech-life balance and has appeared in The Guardian, BBC, El Pais, Metro, Channel 4 etc. and is a speaker at major tech conferences, including World Mobile Congress (Barcelona), Women of Silicon Roundabout (London) etc.
This is an interactive neuroscience-based talk on how technology changes our behaviour and affects our health, thinking, decision-making and creativity if we don’t manage it properly. Dr Anastasia Dedyukhina will share practical tips on how to take charge of technology, and not allow it drive your agenda or thinking. She will also discuss social responsibility of developers.
