Highlights:

There is no doubt that the COVID-19 global crisis has rapidly changed the way we all work. Whether you found yourself donning masks and thinking about social distancing on the front line, or working from a home office for the duration, it seems the future of work was an accelerated change. But what is the future of work if we step back from the current context? What was the longer trend-line, and how might that impact the next few years in the so-called ‘new normal’?. Join us as Future of Work expert Stephen Harrington puts ‘new ways of working’ into the broader context, and discusses the skills crisis and how we may need to think about corporate learning fundamentally differently. As he says, “It is time for us to get as disciplined about human architecture and integration as we are in IT with systems”.
