Recommendation

Quickening disruption is inevitable as AI and machines invade work that people once routinely performed, writes business professor Edward D. Hess. To help workers deal with this development, Hess prescribes lifelong learning, unlearning and relearning focused on creativity, collaboration and critical thinking – which people still do better than machines. His approach to learning is holistic, marrying mind, body and spirit – and it’s based on hundreds of journal articles, books and 17 years of teaching experience. Hess also offers numerous thought experiments, assessments and journaling exercises.

Take-Aways

  • Hyper-learning demands continual learning, unlearning and relearning.
  • Humans evolved to connect, cooperate and learn throughout their lives.
  • Learning requires a quiet ego and safe environment.
