These Are the Skills of the Future, According to 39 Industry Experts<\/strong> <\/a>— from linkedin.com by Paul Petrone<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a misconception out there that the future of work will be robots and artificial intelligence automating\u00a0all the jobs, leaving nothing for majority of the world\u2019s citizens to do.<\/p>\n

History says that\u2019s not the case. Over the past 120 years, there have been incredible technological advancements \u2013 cars, personal computers, the internet, smartphones, etc. \u2013\u00a0that have automated or eliminated aspects of nearly every job. But jobs haven\u2019t gone away; instead, they\u2019ve generally become more complex or changed scope, requiring new skills to complete them.<\/p>\n

Hence, over the next five years, with AI and other technologies changing the market, jobs won\u2019t go away. But the skills needed to do most jobs will change (and, in many cases, change drastically).<\/p>\n

And, with all this change comes great opportunity. So, if you commit to learning and stay ahead of your industry, you\u2019ll put yourself in position to reach your goals \u2013 regardless of where you stand now.<\/p>\n
