The Future of Work: How AI is Transforming Project Work- David Mantica - Central (Mooresville & West Lake Norman) Virtual Meeting
Topic:
Communication Is King: A Masterclass In What To Say
Artificial intelligence and Generative AI is rapidly transforming the nature of knowledge work. In this session, we will explore how AI is automating routine tasks and augmenting human capabilities. This creates new opportunities for knowledge workers willing to adapt and develop new skills. However, it also poses potential challenges that must be proactively addressed.
We will discuss specific examples of how AI is impacting knowledge work roles and activities. The learning objectives are to understand these AI-driven changes, recognize emerging roles and skills, appreciate the importance of adaptability, and consider the power skills necessary to thrive in an AI world. The future of knowledge work will require openness to change and a commitment to lifelong learning.
Objectives:
- Understand how AI automates repetitive knowledge work tasks, allowing workers to focus on higher-value activities.
- Recognize how AI augments project capabilities and creates opportunities for project managers.
- Learn emerging roles and skills from the integration of AI into knowledge work.
- Appreciate the importance of adaptability as AI changes knowledge work roles, activities, and skills.
- Understand the power skills (critical thinking, systems thinking, problem solving, adaptive leadership) necessary for knowledge workers to thrive in an AI world.
