Whether you are a new entrepreneur or a fortune 500 company, you have to always design for the future. ⁣
⁣
From online shopping to social media to streaming platforms to environmentally conscious consumers, trends and lifestyle changes have disrupted our relationships with the consumption economy from every angle. 👉🏽According to management consulting firm A.T. Kearney, forward looking retail centers are preparing to transform into experience centers. Organizations that don't transform their purpose to align with the digital future will likely be life behind.⁣

AI is expected to be better equipped than humans to write a high school essay by 2026, work in retail by 2031, write a bestselling book by 2049, and perform open heart surgery by 2053. ⁣
⁣
We confirmed these forecasts with the thought-leaders at last month's WAYE Talk. So what does that mean for us? ⁣
⁣
It means that we are going to have to shift our working culture to one of continuous learning–and one in which skills become the key asset. 👉🏽 But the question becomes, what skills? 🗣Stay tuned for a special announcement this week on the future of work. ⁣
