Though most large events and gatherings have been cancelled due to COVID-19, Vivienne has continued consulting remotely with companies and organizations around the world. These briefings have covered Vivienne's research in AI, data science, HR, and innovation, but have also addressed the impact of Covid-19 on business and culture. These interactive sessions have ranged from intimate groups of Chief Executives to larger audiences of hundreds of attendees. We’ve received unanimously positive feedback: Vivienne’s breadth of knowledge and expertise in so many fields, paired with her fun and quirky delivery, has provided insight into our current struggle while also promoting community as dispersed teams grapple with new workplace challenges.

If you or your organization are interested in setting up a remote conversation with Vivienne around technology and innovation, inclusion, remote work, COVID-19, or otherwise, please reach out to us at keynotes@socos.org.
