LinkedIn Life’s Post

We’re living in a pivotal era shaped by two transformative trends: the age of #AI and the age of #hybridwork.    Capitalizing on this opportunity requires the right conditions, mindset and partner ecosystem. It starts with ....     🌟 Unlocking Potential in Growing Markets:     Emerging economies across Greater Asia — such as Thailand, the Philippines and Malaysia — are brimming with opportunity. By focusing on what partners need to grow in the region, we’re positioning these markets for transformation and empowering our partners to reach their full potential.    💻 Personalizing Our Portfolio for Every Need:    HP’s portfolio harnesses cutting-edge advancements, with AI at the core of our most exciting solutions.

This is how we’re driving #momentum.  

Unlocking Success in the Age of AI: Insights from LinkedIn Talent Connect Asia More leaders I’ve spoken to at the event we hosted, and in the last few months, acknowledge that they cannot rely on old talent playbooks to navigate this evolving era of work. At LinkedIn’s flagship customer event, Talent Connect, yesterday, I gained a deeper insight into what diverse companies are doing – and planning to do – to re-write their playbooks for success in recruiting, developing, and retaining the best talents. After all, human capital is a company’s most important asset. Here are some key takeaways from the conversations:  1. Embracing AI to evolve talent playbooks: In this new era of work that’s being reshaped by AI, where skills needed for the same job will change by 68% globally by 2030, modern talent strategies must prioritize fostering a culture of continuous learning. This means empowering employees with essential skills and fostering internal mobility. In fact, I am heartened to know that in SEA’s largest economy, Indonesia, a large majority of companies (97%) - more than any other APAC market that LinkedIn studied - are focused on preparing their employees for the future world of work by enhancing their skills and capabilities. Leaders believe that this would lead to increased confidence and job security for their workforce. 2. AI skills, coupled with soft skills, are essential to thrive in the future of work: LinkedIn study shows that an astounding 95% of L&D professionals in SEA believe that human skills are increasingly becoming the most competitive in our economy. In particular, communication skills top LinkedIn’s most in-demand skills list in 2024 across all countries in APAC, including in Indonesia. How are you or your company gearing up to adapt and thrive in the age of AI?  #FutureOfWork #AI #TalentConnect

🔥 Gen AI is Shaking Up the Workforce & Work Itself! 2T Euro Opportunity for Europe 🤖 ✨ We're diving into the future world of Generative AI (#GenAI) and it is about to turn almost everything upside down. 💥 Summary of the Accenture’s Jean Marc Ollagnier article that you can find here: https://lnkd.in/evBJJc6A Gen AI And People: The Two Trillion Euro Opportunity For Europe (forbes.com) 💡 This game-changing technology is quickly becoming the biggest breakthrough of our era, and it's gonna reinvent the way we work like nothing before. 🤯 💼 However, to truly unlock the benefits of #GenAI, companies need to take a people-centric approach. The focus should be on boosting employee productivity and well-being. 💪 🎯 Accenture's research claims that by responsibly adopting #GenAI at scale and focusing on people, Europe could create a whopping €2.3 trillion in economic value over the next 15 years! 🤑 That's like adding an extra 0.6% to annual GDP growth until 2038! 📈 And the prediction continues: up to 44% of working hours across Europe could be automated or augmented by Gen AI. 🤖👷♀️ That is indeed a game-changer! 🤔 4 actions companies need to do to prepare their workforce for the #GenAI revolution? ✨ 1. Lead by example: Leaders gotta challenge old mindsets and immerse themselves in the tech. Time to transform how we learn! 🔄 2. Reinvent work: Rethink entire workflows to see where Gen AI can shine and boost efficiency/innovation. 💪 3. Reshape the workforce: Prioritize continuous talent reinvention and align people with higher-value activities. 🧠 4. Invest in people: Provide training to build Gen AI skills and foster trust in the tech. 💰The key? Investing in your people. Accenture found that 94% of European workers want to learn #GenAI skills, but only 5% of employers are providing training at scale. 🥴 To sum up! Gen AI is coming, and it's going to shake up the workforce and jobs like never before.

We are entering a new era. No, not 1989 😅 Had an incredible experience at #Talentconnectaustralia! Thank you LinkedIn for putting such an amazing event in iconic Sydney Cricket Ground. It brought back memories of the last time I was there for the Mardi Gras parade in 2022. It feels wonderful to return! As you can imagine two letter A and I aka #AI were the centre of every discussion. Here is a few insights from the conference: ✅ I felt inspired and reassured by Aneesh Raman's, VP and Head of Opportunity project at LinkedIn, message: "AI will empower you to change the game but it won’t change us." ✅ We need to shift our mindset. Don’t ask: "What LEFT for humans in the age of AI?" Focus on: "what is POSSIBLE for humans in the age of AI." ✅ 60% of skills are set to change by 2030 because of AI, so it’s time to embrace change and experiment without overthinking. ✅ Adaptability is the new currency in our field. Embrace innovation and be open to new approaches. ✅ Growing importance of building a strong talent brand, particularly when engaging with Gen Z—currently the biggest challenge in recruitment. ✅ Content is the KING. Time of similar job ads and JDs is over. Karin Kimbrough's, Chief Economist, optimism about the APAC region's growth was contagious, especially with sectors like healthcare and education leading the charge. To sum up, we need to lean on the possibilities that AI brings, prioritise adaptability, and continuously evolve our strategies to meet the changing needs and expectations of the workforce. Excited for what the future holds and the part we all play in shaping it! I'm keen to hear how you using AI or any other automation tools in your work. Share in the comments 😊

Earlier this year, I had the wonderful opportunity to work as part of a global research team that informs Accenture Song's annual Life Trends report 💡 Each year, the report filters through a range of human signals (purchasing patterns, media consumption, intergenerational relationships, to name a few) into concise trends that reflect global shifts in business, technology, and society at large. Accenture Life Trends 2025, launched just last month, centres on five trends that reflect shifts in how we navigate ... 💻 online interactions (think deep-fakes and online scams) 🧒 parenting (should children be allowed to use social media?) 💼 employment (the perennial question of work-life balance) 👭 socialising (how do we build authentic human connections in the digital age?) 🚀 personal growth (how is tech affecting how we set and achieve goals?) I would love to hear whether and how these trends reflect your experience, so please do give the report a read and let me know what you think! 📔 Full report:

🌐 Shoutout to all CEOs: are you investing as much in your people as you are in AI? In a world rapidly transformed by AI, personal development has become more crucial than ever. Here's why: AI is reshaping our world, particularly the job market 🤖 In my opinion we face two scenarios: 1) AI (as software or integrated in hardware, e.g. robots) will take over most of the jobs most of the people currently hold and will create plenty of new jobs in the process 2) AI will take over most of the jobs of the present and future, leaving 95% of people unemployed. Scenario 1) means that continuous re-skilling and actual lifelong learning will become a necessity Scenario 2) presents us with a range of social, economical and political challenges, e.g. the challenge to find purpose beyond traditional work as jobs are being replaced I deeply believe that 🧠 personal development is key to coping with this complexity (and to staying mentally healthy while doing so) both as individuals and as a society. And I believe that companies are responsible to prapre their current and future workforce for what is coming! Right now the #idg summit is tacking place in Stockholm 🎯 And considering the future we are facing the five crucial skill areas outlined by the Inner Development Goals framework to cope with exterior complexity are as important as ever: 1️⃣ Being: Present and non-reactive 2️⃣ Thinking: Taking multiple perspectives 3️⃣ Relating: Connecting with others and the world 4️⃣ Collaborating: Including diverse stakeholders 5️⃣ Acting: Having courage and optimism 🚀 We are on a mission to make personal development accessible to everyone - so that we are prepared for whatever the future holds. As we navigate this AI-driven future, investing in personal development isn't just beneficial—it's essential. How are you preparing your workfoce for the changes ahead? #AI #PersonalDevelopment #FutureOfWork #InnerDevelopmentGoals

Embracing Today's Importance: Navigating a Fast-Paced World with Purpose In a world that’s rapidly evolving, today’s importance is defined not by tomorrow's promises, but by the actions we take now.

⚙️ Which areas of work/tasks do you want AI to help you in or replace you?⚙️ From the quick poll during the 'AI & the Workforce: Implications, Risks & Support' session QED hosted at LinkedIn's office (thanks Elsie Ng!), some takeaways: ▪️ 89% want AI to help or replace us in Repetitive Tasks (data entry, scheduling, reporting, etc) ▪️ 58% don't want AI to help or replace us in Decision Making (risk assessment, resource allocation, etc) ▪️ 44% don't want AI to help or replace us in Creative Ideation (design concepts, marketing copy, etc) What are your views? 🎩 Wearing 3 hats 🎩 🎩 as emcee, 🎤 co-presenter and unexpected panel moderator (get well soon Ryan Lim, MSID!) that day, I certainly wished that AI could have helped replace me in one of those roles. Grateful to our power packed panel comprising CEs & CPOs Anand Sachdev, Goki Muthusamy, Kwang Cheak Tan & Ann Ann Low representing diverse sectors were very forthcoming and candid in their views. We're also thankful to Workforce Singapore for the collaboration! Hope that some of you left with a better idea of the support schemes for new hires; or if you need to redesign an existing employees’ job role to avoid having to let them go. #QEDChangemakers
