Prepare For The Future Of Work
When you think about the future of work, automation and AI are likely the first trends that spring to mind. But the future of work isn’t only about tech.
It’s about people.
Career Services, hiring, counseling, training has been the focus of my career for many years. I believe that that I have learned new ways to improve the hiring process, engage employees, and even advance my own career in the face of a changing work landscape.
Hire smarter.
There was a finding from a recently published Google study that said: “There is no correlation to how well someone does on the job to how they do on the interview.”
Instead of looking at quantitative indicators, companies should hire for potential. The three most important qualities to look for in a candidate are mental ability (creativity, problem-solving and critical thinking), conscientiousness and emotional intelligence.
Support the idea of lifelong learning.
The availability for continuing education and personal development has never been more accessible. Learning beyond college and outside of the job is extremely and the only way to stay current and flexible.
Pursue creativity.
AI is becoming increasingly capable of performing routine tasks. In fact, McKinsey estimates that half of all job-related activities could be automated in 20 years. That may sound scary now, but it will likely bring positive change to the workplace. Instead of doing menial tasks, workers will focus on projects that require qualities and skills unique to humans: creativity, complex problem-solving, and critical thinking
Whether you are a company that wants to attract top tier talent or an individual who is trying to land their dream job, it’s clear that the future of work is human. Skills like creativity, complex problem-solving, and critical thinking are essential for your career, and lifelong learning is more important than ever.
