Recommendation

The world of work is changing, but hand wringing isn’t going to help. In an effort to “move the debate on the future of work to new – and practical – territory,” researchers at the World Economic Forum have innovated a tool that promises to shed much needed light. The algorithm charts opportunities and “job transition pathways” for individual workers or entire occupational categories. This white paper outlines the big data based methodology and suggests potential transitions for US workers. getAbstract recommends this white paper for leaders in government, business, labor and education.

Take-Aways

  • The labor market is undergoing a revolution, and workers will have to embrace lifelong learning to keep up.
  • A new tool, based on big data, can reveal workers’ potential pathways in the shifting landscape of work.
  • The tool suggests “viable” and “desirable” transitions for workers currently in declining job categories.
