Ravin Jesuthasan on the Future of Work

SHRM's Tony Lee is joined by Ravin Jesuthasan, a globally recognized thought leader on the future of work and human capital and is one of the world’s most influential consultants. Ravin was the lead partner for the World Economic Forum’s ground-breaking study: Shaping the Future Implications of Digital Media for Society. And is a regular participant and presenter at the World Economic Forum’s annual meetings in Davos and Tianjin. Tony and Ravin discuss the future of work, the increased prominence of soft skills as artificial intelligence plays a bigger role at work, what learnability is and how to identify it, how the will gap is just as important as the skill gap, why white collar jobs will see the most changes in the workplace due to AI, and why HR needs to think of themselves as stewards of work rather than just stewards of jobs.
