Tech culture often celebrates speed, perfection and constant delivery. But humans don’t work like machines.

Drawing inspiration from Ikigai and Kintsugi, this talk explores how meaning, limits, and even “breakage” might become strengths at work.

Without technical deep dives, we’ll connect these concepts to how tech teams work: iterating, learning from mistakes and valuing sustainability over burnout. A reflective but practical talk for anyone who wants to work more peacefully - not just faster.

What if breakage wasn’t failure? Using Ikigai and Kintsugi, this talk explores how meaning, fragility and imperfection can improve teamwork and be normalized - especially in fast-moving, tech-driven environments.
