The Future of Work (FOW) Insights Series focuses on the unfolding mega-trends of the Fourth Industrial Age, also known as the Machine Age, and the essential competencies and capabilities required for leaders to successfully navigate this rapidly evolving environment into the 2020s and beyond.
Unlike previous ages, the Fourth Industrial Age is characterised by an assortment of exponential technologies that blend the digital, biological and physical spheres and are set to create change at an unprecedented rate (Schwab, n.d.).
These disruptions and the technological displacement set to follow are predicted to impact most disciplines and industries causing us to rethink the nature of work and even what it means to be human.
The predicted disruptions and shifts of the new age provide both great promise and great threat and will invariably impact how we think about, organise and execute work. As such, the time for preparedness is now.
