The Future of Work

11:00 am - 12:00 pm | Yerba Buena Room

2:10 pm - 3:10 pm | Treasure Room

Are you ready for the future of work - which promises to be more project based, contract driven, skill and geographically defined, and organized around virtual and ever changing teams? Are you prepared to work anywhere or make an extreme commute? Are you developing a career mobility plan that supports perpetual professional re-imagining or are you dedicated to a single unchanging pathway? Are you ready to save enough for retirement (in a world with fewer benefits and safety nets) or work longer – even into old age? Most importantly, are you building current competencies or are you building progressive, future based competencies? Post-recession work has changed and will continue to change dramatically and technology will continue to shape and accelerate these changes. Awareness is the first step to preparing yourself for these and other seismic shifts…join us for a discussion of the major changes coming soon to the workplace near you.
