SPEAKER

Clarena Tobon

PRESENTATION SUMMARY

This session opens with a high-energy, movement-based icebreaker designed to foster instant connection and psychological safety. Participants will see a slide with a range of music genres (e.g., hip hop, country, jazz, R&B, classical). They’ll move around the room to find others who share a similar taste in music and form small “music crews.” Each group will create a fun name for themselves—and they can choose to either share the name or perform a quick intro (totally optional and pressure-free).

We’ll then repeat the activity with food preferences, allowing for new connections and deeper engagement. The goal is simple but powerful: to show how connection can be built through shared interests—and how psychological safety often begins with low-stakes, human moments. This sets the tone for the rest of the session on human-centered leadership.
