3:35-3:55 PM THE RISE OF THE DESIGN APPRENTICE

Businesses are facing the steepest labor shortages in a generation with over 11 million open jobs in the U.S. One solution: the rise of Design Apprentice programs across public and private sector organizations. This new reskilling and upskilling mechanism is creating more inclusive and equitable pathways to the global workforce by combining kinesthetic and action learning methods in product, service, fashion, sound and user experience design. We’ll explore how the great global reset is shaping a new generation of designers with STEAMD (science, tech, arts, math and design) super powers as a global force for good.

11:05-11:25am

WHY RETHINKING EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT ISN’T JUST FOR HR

People operations are increasingly part of the COO's purview as they negotiate the challenges of automation, upskilling and reskilling, and attracting and retaining top talent across generations. In order to remain competitive, businesses need to embrace a culture of change that responds to the new remote work environment and find ways to maintain a positive employee experience. Employee engagement and wellbeing are evolving, but are no less important to business success. In this session, we’ll give high-level strategies for increasing productivity, employee satisfaction, and trust in the workplace.

Recent literature argues that in the US modern technologies replace jobs intensive in routine, codifiable tasks, and wipe out the middle-skilled employment. The evidence whether it is also the case in emerging economies is still scarce. In order to bridge this gap, I analyse the changes in the task content of jobs in 10 Central and Eastern European countries (CEE) between late 1990s and middle 2010s. I find that the CEE countries witnessed rising intensity of non-routine cognitive tasks, and a decreasing intensity of manual tasks. However, most of them experienced a rise in routine cognitive tasks, a trend absent in the most advanced economies. I assess the relative role played by education and technology in these developments. I also analyse the contribution of structural changes and occupational changes. I identify two groups of workers whose jobs depend most on performing routine cognitive tasks, who jointly represent 33% of workers in CEE, and are likely to be affected by future technical progress.
