Speakers about Cross-Culture and the Future of Work

Why is cross-cultural understanding so important for the future of work Speakers?

 

With the rapid rate of globalization, the way we communicate is changing. We have the ability to speak to people from all over the world at the click of a button, and we have more opportunities than ever before to connect with global businesses using technology and the internet. This is why cross-cultural communication is a strategically important investment for businesses everywhere.

When we talk about cross-cultural communication, it’s not just about breaking down language barriers. It’s about understanding how people from different cultures speak, communicate, and perceive the world around them. This has consequences for the future of work, which is being shaped by two things:

    – The growing adoption of artificial intelligence in the workplace; and
    – The expansion of the workforce to include both on and off-balance-sheet talent.

This means there will be various changes for the workplace, the workforce and the actual work itself. Despite the media’s focus on the relationship between automation and job loss, changes in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and autonomous systems mean that our lives and work-lives are being consistently transformed. Change is inevitable, so we need to look at ways to prepare for it to ensure the future of globalization and work is beneficial for everyone.

There are people already doing just that!

Here are our Top 10 Global Speakers on Cross-Culture and the Future of Work.
