The Forces Shaping the Future Workforce for 2023 and Beyond
 

COVID-19 profoundly and instantly disrupted the world of work. Organizations were compelled to adopt an initial remote, and then later hybrid work model as their employees opted to Work from-Anywhere. Three years later, this model of hybrid, distributed, and borderless work has not only become permanent but an expectation as the new normal. However, as new forces continue to emerge, such as rapid advancements in technology, globalization dynamics, and shifting demographics with the rise of the gig economy, the future of work is once again being reshaped. This session will discuss the trends that are influencing the future workforce, and the opportunities and challenges facing employers. It will also provide key takeaways for business leaders and management to prepare and deal with the future workforce.
