SEISMEC Second Online Workshop

11th November 2025 from 11.00 to 12:00 CET

Flip the script: Powering worker participation in the design and implementation of technology. 

What role should employees have in the design and implementation of workplace technologies?

Our second SEISMEC Online Workshop: “Flip the Script: Powering Worker Participation in the Design and Implementation of Technology” delved into the SEISMEC approach to strengthening worker involvement in the adoption of technological solutions in the workplace. 

This time, the agenda featured an in-depth presentation on worker participation in technology design and implementation, an introduction to the AGILE Guidebook, and a set of interactive, scenario-based exercises that encouraged hands-on engagement with practical challenges. The speakers from Erasmus University Rotterdam, Chantal Ho, Vladimer Kobayashi, and Veronika Bak, contributed valuable perspectives to the discussions and activities with their presentations, as well as Laura Lămurean from Transilvania IT Cluster, who served as an excellent moderator.
