Learning, Technology and the Future of Work
Time & Location
About the Session
New technologies, a rapidly changing economy, and employees with new expectations are disrupting the world of work. To keep pace with change, organizations and employees must invest in continuous learning. What are the emerging skills in the highly automated workplace? What are leading edge organizations doing to enable an engaged workforce? To survive, must the knowledge worker become the learning worker?
At the end of the session participants will leave with an improved understanding of:
- How work roles are changing in the face of rapid technology innovation
- Critical skills and behaviours in the workplace of the near future
- Continuous learning as a mission critical activity for any business
- How leading organizations are keeping their employees engaged and skilled
