Exploring opportunities in new world of work
Societal changes mean that tomorrow’s workers will have different skills and expectations. They will be smartphone savvy, and comfortable with hands-off control of complex processes. In day-to-day operations they will be able to quickly draw upon the expertise of professional global networks.
