Julia Hobsbawm

Futurist, Bloomberg Columnist, Workplace Strategist, Leadership in a Hyper-Connected Age

Julia Hobsbawm is a leading authority on the future of work and the evolving mechanics of organisational power. An award-winning author and Bloomberg contributor, she pioneered the concept of "Social Health" to address productivity in an age of digital overload. Her influential book, The Nowhere Office, correctly predicted the shift toward hybrid working, redefining how global organisations manage connection, culture, and performance in a post-pandemic landscape.

Julia specialises in navigating the "stuckness" of modern hierarchies through network thinking. She identifies how AI and generative technology reshape the workplace, focusing on human-centric systems over mere technical capability. For 92 Speakers’ clients, she provides a sophisticated framework for building resilient cultures where trust and influence are sustained without corporate noise.

An incisive and intellectually engaging presence, Julia deconstructs the complexity of the "Amazing Age." She offers C-suite boards a grounded roadmap for strategic foresight, simplifying the relationship between technology, talent, and leadership.
