🎤 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 alliantis GmbH 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 – 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 – 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭. In my keynote, I shared what #futuresthinking and #foresight can bring to the table when navigating change and high levels of uncertainty - and shared some of my hypotheses what will shape the future of work in the next decade(s). As Holger Ringel from #alliantis shared in his opening words: The #workforce #transformation ahead is not a future problem. Even though 2030 seems far in the future, is just about 2-3 budget cycles away. While attending the day, the following observations stood out to me: 🤖 AI is not simply replacing tasks — it is creating an entirely new organizational layer. That demands new governance, new role design, and new leadership. How organizations navigate this change will be a distinctive force in the future. 🌱 Both technology literacy and human adaptability will be the currency of organizational resilience. Thriving companies will be those that manage to orchestrate a co-evolution of AI transformation and upskilling. 🦾  What kind of #learningculture are we actually building for such a world? Will we foster self-directed, autonomous learning environments where employees take full ownership of their development, or will we keep relying on more structured, pre-determined pathways that guide and standardize how learning unfolds? 👷‍♀️ Much of the AI discourse centers on #knowledgeworkers, but a critical question remains: how can organizations ensure that future readiness extends to the entire workforce, equipping all employees - not just those in knowledge-intensive roles - with the skills and capabilities needed to navigate ongoing transformation? In the end, it comes down to the big question that is still open ended and nobody (not matter whom I talk to) has the answer yet: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐞 — 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐭? Thank you Alliantis for creating such a great day and I am looking forward how your community for #HR and #Tech will evolve!
