In this special keynote episode centred around Martin Johnson’s new book ‘I Am Human: Pain & Pleasure’, the Morning Keynote set the tone for the 2024 Leadership Retreat as it delved into the years our species has survived, evolved and thrived through our ability to endure pain and suffering, whilst also seeking pleasure and reward.

But the scales have tipped and we're losing our balance.
