The document discusses changes in the modern workforce and provides advice for professionals. It notes that work is becoming more globalized, specialized, and reliant on technology. Workers need to become lifelong learners who can adapt to changing skills demands. The document recommends developing specialized skills, being adaptable to change, and having "STAR" qualities like finding value-added ideas and navigating organizational interests. It emphasizes skills in STEM fields, storytelling, empathy, design, and finding meaning at work. Career development can provide hope by informing decision-making and envisioning goals and pathways. The modern workforce values autonomy, learning, and behaviors formerly expected only of professionals.
The document discusses how tablets and smartphones are increasingly being used in the workplace due to their adoption by Millennial workers. Tablet sales grew rapidly after the launch of the iPad, with over 64 million tablets sold worldwide in 2011 and projections that tablets will outsell PCs by 2013. Many large companies have begun supporting iPads and iPhones in the workplace after employees demanded access to corporate systems on these devices. The influx of tablets and smartphones, along with their powerful apps, represents a significant shift in workplace technology driven by Millennial preferences. This consumerization of IT is disrupting traditional workplace technology strategies and plans.
This presentation discusses how changes in technology, demographics, the economy, and society will shape the future and impact schools and learning. It outlines five forces driving change: governments and organizations, new models of work, technological advances like AI and robotics, environmental shifts, and demographic changes. The future will see more freelance and gig work, changes in what and how people work, and skills gaps between current skills and future needs. Schools must prepare adaptive, resilient learners and focus on student engagement, personalized learning, collaboration, and developing competencies over just transmitting information.
The document discusses the changing landscape of 21st century teaching and learning. It summarizes that:
1) Forces like new technologies, demographic shifts, and economic changes are transforming how and what people learn.
2) Emerging technologies like 3D printing, robotics, and artificial intelligence will continue disrupting traditional education models.
3) Demographic trends like population aging and the rise of the global middle class will increase pressures on education systems.
4) This context requires reimagining teaching and learning models to focus on competency, personalization, flexibility and lifelong learning.
As we enter the new year, a new strategy, focus or mindset is often required. In a few years time, the impending onslaught of digital and intelligent tech like AI, robotics, autonomous vehicles, blockchain, VR/AR, voice personal assistants and IoT will create a perfect storm for innovation and disruption. Due to this threat of technological and digital disruption, many organisations are undergoing digital transformation, building an innovative culture and exploring blue ocean businesses.
Companies in this creative journey frequently find that while strategy and leadership are important, the biggest inertia and obstacle is culture and individual mindsets. According to McKinsey, Cultural and Behaviour Challenges (33%) is the most formidable challenge to digital transformation (article). Similarly, in a Cap Gemini report, Culture (62%) is ranked as the top hurdle to digital transformation (article). In Nov 2017, Harvard Business Review piece emphasizes the need for CEOs to think like founders and not mere managers (article).
To address this critical gap, we have specially developed the MINDSET 4.0 Now! program for various types of organisations (MNCs, government agencies, local enterprises) in a variety of sectors (from financial services, retail, FMCG, healthcare, real estate, telecoms, technology, manufacturing, logistics, etc) for senior, middle and promising talent (CXOs to mid-level managers). Objective of program is to quickly inculcate and internalise the Innovator's Mindset in your leaders and talent and unlock their potential to be creative catalyst in your organisation's future.
This presentation discusses how schools must adapt to prepare students for an uncertain future shaped by technological change, globalization, and demographic shifts. It notes that the nature of work and organizations is changing, with more contingent and gig-style employment. New technologies like 3D printing, robotics, and artificial intelligence will continue disrupting many industries and jobs. Schools must focus on developing students' adaptability, resilience, collaboration skills, and life-long learning mindsets to help them thrive in this changing world. The presentation advocates for more personalized, competency-based, and student-centered models of learning to better meet learner needs and expectations.
The document summarizes perspectives on the online platform economy and gig workers in the US. It discusses both the opportunities and challenges, noting growing flexibility but also lack of benefits. While reskilling efforts exist, they remain limited and siloed. Moving forward will require upskilling workers with T-shaped skills across technologies, work practices, and mindsets. Platforms and policies should aim to balance winner-take-all approaches with improving opportunities for all.

The document discusses the future of skills and learning. It makes several key points:
1. Work has changed dramatically since 2000 due to factors like contingent workers, globalization, and new technologies. The nature of work and organizations is also changing.
2. Significant changes to work are expected by 2030 due to advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, 3D printing, and demographic shifts. Many jobs may be lost to automation.
3. There is a need to rethink skills development and learning to address these changes. Learning needs to focus on competencies over credentials and be available flexibly for lifelong learning. This includes reconsidering apprenticeships and implementing a "skills guarantee" for workers.
The document discusses the future of AI and society from a service science perspective. It argues that the COVID-19 pandemic is accelerating digital transformation and the shift to online platforms. Service science predicts that in this new environment, entities will increasingly compete for collaborators through value co-creation interactions to jointly elevate their capabilities. The document outlines how service science and AI view the future differently, with service science focusing on transforming systems of people and AI focusing on automation. It provides a framework for understanding smarter and wiser service systems over time.
This document discusses the future of skills and jobs in the context of evolving technology and automation. It notes that 45% of current jobs could be lost to automation, requiring workers to gain new skills. To prepare the workforce, the document calls for reforms to education to shift the focus from IQ to skills like leadership, empathy and communication. It proposes that companies and programs like Adecco's CEO for One Month initiative can help bridge the gap between education and work readiness by developing well-rounded professionals. The future will require constantly retraining workers as core skills change rapidly and an estimated 35% of skills will be different by 2020.

Bob Williams- Business Strategies of Past and FutureErika Marr
The document discusses how the rate of change in technology is accelerating and disrupting business strategies and jobs. Some key points:
- Jobs will be redefined or eliminated at an increasing rate, with 50% of US jobs at risk of automation by 2020 according to one study. Industries like manufacturing, food service, retail, and finance are especially at risk.
- Organizations will need to flatten structures with fewer employees taking on more roles. Speed of response and requirements for agility will increase.
- Education and job skills will need to continually adapt to focus more on skills like critical thinking that are hard to automate. Lifelong learning will be important.
- To prepare, businesses should integrate

Jobs for the Future: Using Technology to Empower in the 21st Century EconomyTess Gilman Posner
There are trends that are significantly impacting work and the economy. The pace of change is increasing and the skills we need to be successful in the new economy are evolving. Unfortunately, if we continue with some of the current trends, some people stand to benefit from the way that work is evolving, and others could be excluded. Read more about the future of work trends and how technology can be an equalizer and begin to present new opportunities for those that are excluded.
Jim Spohrer gave a presentation at Purdue University on service innovation in the AI era. Some key points from the presentation include:
- Service science is an emerging field that studies how responsible entities can transform through win-win interactions to improve quality of life, while AI aims to automate tasks performed by people.
- As computing costs decrease exponentially every 20 years due to Moore's law, AI capabilities will become much more accessible, with narrow tasks being solved by 2040 and broad human-level abilities by 2060.
- This will greatly increase productivity and GDP per employee over time if the benefits of AI are shared widely. However, there are also risks like job loss that need to be addressed.
1. Industry 4.0 refers to the current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies. It includes cyber-physical systems, IoT, cloud computing and cognitive computing.
2. Industry 4.0 is expected to significantly impact the job market. Many existing jobs will be automated, especially those involving physical labor, data collection and processing. However, it will also create demand for new skills like data analytics and machine learning.
3. For workers to adapt to Industry 4.0, new skill sets need to be developed, such as change management, emotional intelligence, process awareness, data science, IT proficiency, domain expertise and big picture awareness. The skills that are uniquely human, like creativity, complex
AI driven automation will create wealth and expand economies. Find out the views of the Executive Office of the US President in this AI Government led initiative.
Yembe Nfor discusses how information technology can be used to either build technology businesses or promote other ventures. IT can be leveraged as a business venture through tech-entrepreneurship by identifying technological needs and building sustainable IT solutions. IT can also be used as a tool to make other businesses more efficient through faster processes, better documentation, automation, communication and customer relationship management. Entrepreneurs should seize the opportunity of IT to think of how to maximize their businesses.
This document discusses the rapid progress being made in artificial intelligence and how it will transform society.

This document contains an excerpt from a short story titled "The Spider's Thread" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa. The summary is:
The story describes Buddha using a spider's silver thread to rescue a man named Kandata from hell. Kandata begins climbing the thread to escape but sees other sinners following him. Fearing the thread will break under their combined weight, Kandata yells at the others to get off the thread. However, the thread then snaps, causing Kandata to fall back into hell.

The document discusses how globalization is changing the workforce system through increased outsourcing and offshoring of jobs. Key points made include that 150 million educated workers have entered the global workforce since 2000, allowing jobs to move to where labor is cheapest. Both business operations and the skills needed by workers are changing as a result, with "fungible" routine jobs most at risk of being outsourced or replaced by technology, while "value-add" jobs requiring specialized skills and lifelong learning will provide the most stability. Labor market information analysis must now take a global perspective to understand competition and opportunities.
Do More. Do things that were previously impossible!Tim O'Reilly
My keynote at SxSW Interactive on March 9, 2018. I tackle the job of the entrepreneur to redraw the map, and not to accept the idea that technology will put people out of work rather than creating new kinds of prosperity. I try to provide a call to action to throw off the shackles of the old world and to build a new one. So many companies play defense. Cut costs, watch the competition, follow best practices. Great entrepreneurs like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk play offense. They see the world with fresh eyes, taking off the blinders that keep companies using technology to make slight improvements to existing products and practices, rather than imagining the world as it could be, given the new capabilities that technology has given us.

The document discusses using appreciative inquiry (AI) to create a culture of innovation and sustainable value through identifying strengths. It provides examples of how AI was used by organizations like Fairmount Minerals to achieve 40% annual growth and sustainability awards. AI involves discovering an organization's strengths and envisioning future possibilities to design new approaches. The document argues this can elevate strengths, combine them to broader impacts, and extend organizations in a revolutionary way.
This document discusses trends shaping the future of work, organizations, and education. Some key trends include shifting global economies with growth in Asia, new technologies like AI disrupting many jobs, and the rise of the gig economy. This will require new types of agile organizations and new ways of working that integrate people and technology. Both businesses and public policy need to adapt to these changes. Education also needs to shift to focus more on skills like collaboration and adaptability rather than just STEM. Overall, the future will be defined by ongoing, rapid changes that require strategic leadership to navigate.

This document discusses the transition to a knowledge and innovation economy and the roles of knowledge workers. It makes the following key points:
1) Most professions are undergoing a transformation from traditional service roles to continuous innovation as routine tasks are taken over by technology.
2) Knowledge workers are those who transform information into decision options and solutions, while innovative knowledge workers help create new contexts for knowledge.
3) For knowledge work to be effective, innovative knowledge workers must design new contexts and languages to integrate knowledge within organizations.
4) Universities currently focus on producing information workers rather than knowledge creators and synthesizers. A shift is needed to develop innovative knowledge worker skills.

Introduction to Technology Entrepreneurship 2009Tarek Salah
This document outlines an agenda for a one-day technology entrepreneurship seminar for Egyptian university students. The seminar introduces concepts of entrepreneurship and innovation and covers topics such as the entrepreneurial process, opportunity identification, business strategy, business plan writing, startup valuation, and introduction to marketing. Case studies are used to illustrate lessons about innovation, product development, capital formation, and responding to competition. Trend analysis and Porter's five forces model are discussed as approaches for analyzing industries and opportunities.
The document discusses the need for STEM education reform in the United States to better prepare students for careers in a global, technology-driven economy. It notes declining US competitiveness in STEM fields and outlines recommendations from reports to improve K-12 math and science education, support for research, and developing a skilled STEM workforce. The goal is to transform education from an obsolete model to one focused on problem-solving, collaboration, and ensuring all students are ready for college or high-skill careers.
Mary C. Daly discusses the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI on the labor market. While some view AI as either replacing all jobs (dystopian) or improving outcomes for all (utopian), history shows that technology impacts different people and jobs in both positive and challenging ways. The recent proliferation of generative AI models means that effects on the labor market will be simultaneous rather than sequential. Whether AI leads to better outcomes depends not just on the technology but also on how institutions, regulations, and mindsets change in response.
A widening IT skills gap is preventing many companies from cashing in on digital’s bright promise, casting a dark cloud over the global economy. Here’s how business leaders can attract, develop and retain the talent needed to succeed in today’s digital era.
The document provides an overview of the information economy and key concepts in economics as they relate to information goods and information technology. It discusses how the economy has transitioned to one based on the exchange of knowledge and information rather than physical goods. Some key points are that information is non-rival and nonexcludable, leading to issues like network effects and tipping. Firms in the information sector have different cost structures than traditional industries.
My plenary talk to the California Workforce Association Conference in Monterey, CA, on September 5, 2018. I talked about the role of technology to augment people rather than replace them from my book WTF? What's the Future and Why It's Up to Us, and my ideas about AI and distributional economics, in the context of today's education and workforce development systems. I also summarize some of the work Code for America has been doing on the current state of the California Workforce Development ecosystem.
The document discusses the changes and challenges of information technology. It covers topics such as technological changes leading to a more globalized and connected world. This brings economic changes as industries converge and business models are disrupted by new technologies. It also discusses social changes as societies move towards more open knowledge and engagement through technologies like social media. However, information technology also faces challenges like dealing with excess workload with lower budgets, finding qualified talent, managing outsourcing and offshoring, and navigating cultural differences in a global workplace under constant technological change.

50. Where are the jobs? Many governments are promoting growth, competitiveness, and employment. But hoping that advanced “clean” technologies can create work on a large scale will probably be disappointed, because these sectors are just too small to make an economy-wide difference. The local-business and household-services sectors are a much better bet: from 1995 to 2005, services generated all net job growth in high-income economies. Low-tech “green” activities, such as improving the insulation of buildings and replacing obsolete heating and cooling equipment, could generate more jobs than renewable technologies can.

69. 4. Implications for Learning The best jobs are filled by those who can manipulate symbols, scan and comprehend reading material quickly, and write (communicate) persuasively and technically; are part Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) expert and part marketing specialist; are technically savvy; are those who see challenges as problems to be solved; and have convincing intrapersonal and interpersonal skills that can attract, motivate, and inspire followers.
70. Implications for Learning 2 Opportunities to learn are everywhere. The obstacles of time and place no longer exist as learners can access educational opportunities anytime and anyplace in multiple formats.
71.
72. Implications for Learning 4 Technological dissemination means that instruction is becoming more student-centric, encourages cooperative learning, stimulates (ironically) student/teacher interaction, and helps students take greater responsibility for learning.
73. Implications for Learning 5 Since information drives the workplace, the timeliness of workers’ information impacts their ability to add value. Accessing, evaluating and disseminating information via the Internet provides unlimited “learning on demand” opportunities.
74. Implications for Learning 6 Flexible, efficient, readily accessible and customer friendly learning opportunities are typically becoming competency based and partnership dependent.
75. Implications for Learning 7 In the 21st century, scientific and technological innovations have become increasingly important as we face the benefits and challenges of both globalization and a knowledge-based economy. To succeed in this new information-based and highly technological society, all students need to develop their capabilities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to levels much beyond what was considered acceptable in the past.
