30-Second Pitch

Powerful and irrevocable are already reshaping the workplace. Learn how generative AI tools like ChatGPT, automation, blockchain, and other forces are reshaping the workplace.

Overview

As COVID-19 has receded, companies such as Apple, Amazon, Google, Salesforce, and Twitter have severely restricted or even eliminated remote work. Ditto for countless, less iconic firms and small businesses. At a high level, executives and managers at these organizations are trying to turn back the clock to 2019.

Thereโ€™s just one problem, though: For a bevy of reasons, they wonโ€™t succeed.

In many ways, the workplace of 2023 already differs from its pre-pandemic counterpart. In some cases, itโ€™s downright unrecognizable. Whatโ€™s more, this gap will only intensify in the coming years. Blameโ€”or thank, if you likeโ€”powerful economic, societal, geopolitical, and technological forces. They include generative AI, automation, dispersed workforces, blockchain, immersive technologies, employee empowerment, and the return of systemic inflation.

Brass tacks: The workplace is undergoing a massive, irrevocable shift. The only question for business leaders is: What should you do about it?

I answer this question in my talk about my award-winning book, The Nine: The Tectonic Forces Reshaping the Workplace. I peer into the dizzying and chaotic future of work. In the process, I slice through the hype surrounding nascent trends and newfangled technologies.
