The Future of Work: the Machines and the Purposeful, Talented Humans - IRIS

This week I am in Sibos in Sydney speaking about a number of things but the topic closest to my heart is the Future of Work and we're slicing and dicing that on stage in front of nearly 8000 bankers. I fully expect we'll be unpacking far too little with so many big topics swirling around when it comes to trying to imagine what the workplace looks like in 2050. I also expect it will be an awkward session with hard truths shy to come out and same old eager to fill in the blanks. As we were preparing this it became clear there is simply so very much to touch on. With it being one of the very few sessions regarding our biggest asset in banking – our employees, it's evident that collectively, it continues being so much more comfortable overall to speak about technology, numbers, standards and the theoretical threat of a distant AI future.
