Artificial intelligence and the future of work
In cooperation with Peter Drucker Society Europe
The automation of ‘knowledge work’ brings major changes to companies and alters the way we understand work itself. What will the workplace of the future look like once humans and machines interact on a cognitive level? As we redefine our perception of the division of labour, what role will the managers of the future play?
