As a workplace futurist, Link will cover how automation and digital technologies will impact companies' ability to attract, retain and manage talent. Webinar attendees will learn:

Which needs in Maslow's Hierarchy can be supported through technology, such as flexibility, connectivity and self-empowerment.
About the trends shaping the post-digital workplace and how they're adding value or inhibiting the human element.
Workplace strategies that will maximize human connection in the workplace when dealing with virtual workers, automation, cognitive technologies, collaborative digital infrastructures and machine decision-making.
How failing to adapt to a more agile work environment will cause some companies to lose skilled talent.
