We couldn’t be more excited to be back at the Oakland Museum of California on Sept. 17-18, 2025 to reimagine the future of work.

We’re proud to share that we’ve already confirmed four speakers for RC 2025:

  • ​Vivienne Ming, PhD explores maximizing human capacity as a theoretical neuroscientist, delusional inventor, and demented author.
  • ​Eldra Jackson III is the executive director of Inside Circle, a non-profit that advocates for at-risk youth and effective criminal justice rehabilitation.
  • ​Doug Kirkpatrick was an early employee at the Morning Star Company, a self-managed tomato manufacturer. Since then, he's written books and consulted with companies around the world about self-management and employee empowerment.
  • ​Neel Doshi is the co-founder and CPO of Vega Factor, and co-author of the New York Times best-seller Primed to Perform.

If you haven't already, be sure to pencil in the dates Sept. 17-18. Thank you for being the best part of Responsive!

​See you in 2025!​

Best,
Robin & the Responsive team
