The Future of Work and the Job of the Future – The New Revolution

We live in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world. Changes are evident at social, technological, economic, political, environmental and demographic levels. The increase in life expectation, the irruption of women in the labor world, the integration of new generations, the globalization, the urban hyper concentration and the emergence of other business models are transforming societies and businesses. And changes are becoming more and more vertiginous.

What is the meaning of work? What are the new technologies and how these impact on the working activity?

The Human Side of Digital Transformation

Digital transformation is a reality for most organizations. The failure rate in change processes is, however, continuously increasing.
