Reclaiming Focus in the Urgency Economy.
About this Event

Your attention is not a resource you can replenish with a long weekend.

HR professionals operate at the center of organizational complexity — managing people, policy, culture, and leadership demands while absorbing the constant digital churn that comes with it. The always-on expectation isn't a bug in the system. For many of us, it has become the system.

Dr. Nicole C. Jackson joins baHRC for a working session that reframes digital balance as what it actually is: a core leadership competency. Not a wellness initiative. Not a productivity hack. A skill that directly affects your decision quality, your career trajectory, and your long-term sustainability in roles that ask everything of you.

This isn't a lecture. It's a guided examination of the habits we've built under pressure — and which ones are quietly working against us.

You'll leave with:

  • A clearer picture of how digital overload specifically degrades HR effectiveness
  • Language to name what's been costing you focus without knowing why
  • One concrete commitment you can implement within 48 hours

The urgent inbox will still be there. The question is whether you will be.

Our guest and speaker for this session is Dr. Nicole C. Jackson, MBA, MS, PhD, Assistant Vice Provost for Academic Affairs at Golden Gate University and a Distinguished Principal Research Fellow in Human Capital at The Conference Board. She is also the founder and CEO of Just Myself LLC, a digital wellness and balance company. With a career spanning Accenture, higher education leadership, and executive research, she works at the intersection of strategy, talent, and sustainable performance — translating research into practical tools for professionals and organizations navigating the demands of always-on work culture. She is an active speaker and workshop facilitator with SHRM NorCal and holds a PhD from UC Berkeley.
