②  “Automation and AI will take all our jobs away…” (Mechanical Engineering Professor, Columbia University)

④  “We can’t rely on old ideas- we must create value around new possibilities…the most exciting enterprises are making it up as they go…they’re comfortable with ambiguity and uncertainty” (Entrepreneurship & Management Chair, Berea College)

⑤  “…foretelling the future of work is no easier than foretelling the future of anything…the future of work depends less on our digital creations than on our collective imagination” (Journalism Professor, Boston College)

WHY IT MATTERS

6

We need to be able to do things machines can’t.

Teams & work cultures will be diverse & multinational. We need skills to work

with, lead, and quickly build rapport with those different from us.

Without inclusion, you don’t reap benefits of diversity. Facilitating cultures

of inclusion & belonging is inherent to functions of managers & leaders.
