Preparing For The Future Of Work, Education, Economy - E-book - ePub

As many as 30% of jobs at all levels are likely to be impacted by automation (artificial intelligence and robotics) within the next 15 years. We're already past the tipping point. New jobs will require advanced training or education. Over 90% of jobs created since the 2008 Great Recession have required education beyond high school. Things are rapidly changing. Technological changes exponentially make other things possible.
How do we prepare for the rapidly changing future of work, education, and the economy without a crystal ball? Understanding our economy and how to make it work is a principal goal of this book. We can look at the new requirements for work, which has a huge impact on education. We can look at what has happened to the economy and see what we need to change to make it work for everyone. This book uses resources from those in the know: Harvard, MIT, Georgetown University, Brookings Institute, Mckinsey & Company, and many other great institutions, all who play major roles in business management, technology development, and education.
This book tells about the kinds of jobs that will be displaced, the new types of jobs, and the educational requirements for them.
