Abi Humayun, People Activation

In this episode we speak to Abi Humayun, co-founder of the incredible People Activation, a business with a 17 year track record of creating engaging and educational employee experiences.

Abi talks to us about the role of design thinking in creating great events, about kidnapping a CEO with Danny Dyer, her nightmares about destroying the pitch at Old Trafford, and her greatest event ever: a simultaneous global birthday party for thousands of people.

Huge thanks to Abi for coming on and sharing her stories, tips and tricks.

Abi mentioned the Service Profit Chain. Here’s an article on it from Harvard Business Review.

She also mentioned the classic, Start with Why by Simon Sinek, available here.

The two speakers that Abi recommended were Benjamin Zander (watch his TED Talk here) and Beau Lotto (see him speaking at Google).
