Future skills : the 20 skills and competencies everyone needs to succeed in a digital world / by Marr, Bernardauthor(CARDINAL)468186;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The 4th industrial revolution is transforming the world of work. Digitization and technologies such as AI, robotic process automation, extended reality, cloud computing, big data, blockchains, etc. are automating, augmenting and adding jobs. The skills people will need to succeed in this new world of work are very different from the skills that made people succeed in the past. There is often a misconception that all we need in the future are coding or technology skills. That couldn't be further from the truth. While we clearly need people with technical knowledge, we need individuals that have an understanding of technology, but focus on the skills humans excel at, such as creativity, critical thinking, interpersonal communication and leadership. Future Skills is about understanding what skills are required to succeed in the future workplace and how to acquire and boost those skills. The book describes the twenty most important skills for the future of work, outlines why they are so valuable, and provide tips and resources to help the reader improve those skills."--

It's changing how work gets done, how industries are structured, and how people from all walks of life work, behave, and relate to each other. To thrive in a world driven by data and powered by algorithms, we must learn to see, think, and act in new ways. We need to develop a digital mindset. But what does that mean? Some fear it means that in the near future we will all need to become technologists who master the intricacies of coding, algorithms, AI, machine learning, robotics, and who-knows-what's-next. This book introduces three approaches-Collaboration, Computation, and Change-that you need for a digital mindset and the perspectives and actions within each approach that will enable you to develop the digital skills you need. With a digital mindset, you can ask the right questions, make smart decisions, and appreciate new possibilities for a digital future. Leaders who adopt these approaches will be able to develop their organization's talent to prepare their company for successful and continued digital transformation. Award-winning researchers and professors Paul Leonardi and Tsedal Neeley will show you how, and let you in on a surprising and welcome secret: developing a digital mindset isn't as hard as we think. Most people can become digitally savvy if they follow the "30% rule"-the minimum threshold that gives us just enough digital literacy to understand and take advantage of the digital threads woven into the fabric of our world"--
