How to remain relevant and add value in the age of automation and globalisation 

By Bronwyn Williams

In this keynote talk, Bronwyn Williams unpacks what has changed (and what has and will not change any time soon) when it comes to the present and future world of work.

If you want to remain relevant – you have to add value to, and be valued by your market. This talk unpacks the future of human capital value exchange and gives you the actionable insights you need to invest in – personally and professionally – to ensure you will find yourself on the right side of the API (Application Programming Interface) curve’s future history.

Key trends and critical topics covered include:

• The shift from incomes to outcomes
• The implications of the “lying down flat” and “minimum effort Monday”movements.
• Play to earn “business models” of the future – and the new work-life balance.
• The importance of spiritual wellness and mental health at work.
• The Matthew Effect and the future of how to win in a “rockstar” career world.
• Global competition and local opportunity.
• The fiscal and physical freedom vs security trade off for employees and employers.
• Embracing the “portfolio career” world of work.
• Working with, not against “the machines” (using AI to your advantage, rather thanyour redundancy).
• Missing ladder rungs and intergenerational bridge-building.
• Rethinking education and lifelong learning with microcredentials and skillspassports.
• The importance of “ownership” – aka skin in the game.
• Key skills and careers of the future with the longest “half lives”.and much more.

By the end of the presentation, you will understand how the future landscape of work has shifted, and is shifting further still, and the biggest opportunities, threats, challenges, and solutions that lie ahead for workers, managers, and employers – and how each of these stakeholders can secure their own future value in the chain.
