Mark Spelman, Member of the Executive Committee at The World Economic Forum, explains why businesses need to plan today for the workforce of tomorrow.
Points discussed include:
-
Due to big data and the Internet of Things, the ability to connect objects and people is changing the business environment
-
The development of artificial intelligence will alter our workforce requirements, and perhaps even our class system
-
Tomorrow's workforce is more likely to be transient and hired for short periods
-
We must think about how we reskill and upskill our staff; the right talent will be limited, so we can't all poach the staff we need
