Workplace of the Future — New Rules for a New World
Mike Walsh
Futurist, global nomad, and leading authority on technology, transformation, and leadership — with a uniquely global perspective
Walsh will speak about how COVID-19 hastened the arrival of a radical new future of work. While for many of us, working from home has been a new and unexpected challenge, Walsh contends it is just the start of a much bigger transformation that will reshape the nature of business itself.
To survive, every organization will have to virtualize. Whether it be serving customers through digital channels or leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), algorithms, and automation to ensure business continuity — we are likely to experience a decade’s worth of change in the next 12 months. For leaders, now, more than ever, is a time to upgrade their capabilities, embrace new technologies, and reimagine what they do.
Walsh’s inspiring keynote presentation will offer IH/OEHS professionals insights into the organizations and leaders that are successfully navigating this period of change and how to create a playbook for their own transformation. Becoming future-proof is more than just about getting through the current crisis—it is about being ready for the new world that awaits us on the other side.
