The workplace is evolving rapidly—largely due to technology. Think about it: The smartphones we use, the apps we rely on and the endless stream of emerging platforms have all joined us at work. Many people are worried robots will take jobs. But research shows many jobs will actually be helped by AI.
As the world is reshaped by bots, predictive software and augmented reality, it will alter the organizational landscape, especially as intelligent systems learn to adapt to users’ needs. This is good for people and business.
These presentations explore the changing world of work from the HR perspective—from benefits trends to the new metrics of talent analytics. Anticipate the future and prepare to take a leading role in creating workplaces that are more strategic, creative, learning-focused and flexible.
