\n<\/em>My comments below are not meant to bash anyone at the Institute for the Future (which I really respect) nor at MIT Technology Review, in fact I recently posted an item from the latter organization<\/a> that I thought was great. <\/em>But l<\/span>ooking at the list below, I can’t help but think, “Oh…that should be no problem!\u00a0 Geez that’s easy<\/em>! ………NOT<\/em>!” <\/span><\/p>\n

As people lose their jobs to AI, robots, bots, algorithms, automation and the like — and try to reinvent themselves — many people won’t have the skills, interests, aptitudes, funding, background\/prior knowledge, etc. to carve out their niches, to find out how to build teams that utilize robots and AI, and to make sense of complex systems. How many of us truly understand the world we’re living in these days? No one does.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Again, no problem on mastering these 5 peak performance zones. Easy peazy lemon squeezy. <\/em>Geeez.\u00a0 <\/span>(Please hear the intense sarcasm dripping off my comments.) <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

How unrealistic can we get? It’s like saying, “Everyone can learn to code. No problem.”\u00a0 That’s not true at all, especially given the current state of computer programming. Many (most?) people simply don’t think that way. That’s why programmers are always in demand and they are often highly paid. Why? Because most people don’t want to do it, can’t do it, or choose not to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please, let’s get realistic.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

From the 2\/22\/18 e-newsletter from MIT Technology Review<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The five skills you need for jobs of the future<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Palo Alto-based think tank Institute for the Future partnered with software company Cornerstone OnDemand to produce a report that identifies 15 skills<\/a> that workers need to succeed in the workplace of tomorrow<\/span><\/span>. They fall into five main buckets:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make yourself known through reputation management:<\/strong> Carve out your niche and brand across a variety of platforms to distinguish yourself from the crowd.<\/li>\n
  2. Master human and machine collaboration:<\/strong> Know how to build teams that utilize robots and AI, as well as humans.<\/li>\n
  3. Build your tribe:<\/strong> Personal networks and social connections will take you to the next level in a tech-focused world.<\/li>\n
  4. Make sense of complex systems:<\/strong> The ability to be creative and connect the dots between different industries and organizations will be rewarded.<\/li>\n
  5. Build resilience in extreme environments:<\/strong> Learn to thrive in more a risk prone society and build yourself new safety nets.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    “To be fit for this future, you need to master five peak performance zones. These are the basics of future fitness for everyone. No matter what your own personal mission in life is, these are the workout zones that will get you ready to face whatever comes next.”<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
