Future of work & skills development

It's known that technological changes such as automation and AI are transforming the skills required in the workforce and skills such as creativity, problem solving and critical thinking are becoming more important. I'm interested to your views on: a) what do you think is the role of HR and the wider organisation in supporting workers in gaining these skills vis-a-vis their own responsibility in gaining these specific skills, b) how do you measure these specific skills in the hiring process outside of the standard interview questions c) how do you encourage lifelong learning in your organisation for people to improve in these specific areas?hiring

  • You raise an interesting question.

    I recently heard Ravin Jesuthasan - co-author of the new book Reinventing Jobs with John Boudreau - talk on this topic.

    He said that some of the changes AI will bring are so complex and so rapid in arriving that employees may not be aware of them or understand their implications. It's therefore down to employers to monitor this horizon and advise employees accordingly.
