Skills for the workplace of the future

The workforce of the future will be unrecognisable. Already technology is replacing a number of manual tasks, and increasingly artificial intelligence will reorient the nature of workplaces.

The knowledge and gig economies will be joined by the emotional economy because it is the so-called “soft skills” that will become the critical skill sets in future workplaces.

Workplaces, no matter how automated, will still need managers to lead workers who will increasingly be dealing with knowledge-based tasks such as programming, policy designing, writing strategies, marketing and translating research into real world products.

We know change will be a constant and resilience and the ability to guide, inspire and reassure staff will be more important than ever. One of the most important skills in the emotional economy will be the ability to communicate.

Being able to empathise with others and draw on your emotional energy to truly drive success in the workplace.

It’s not just about delivering a great speech in the boardroom, it’s about being able to communicate effectively in all situations. From a one-on-one, to a team meeting, to a crowd of hundreds of people - the fundamental skill set is the same.
