The end of routine is coming, but it’s NOT the end of human work – if we focus on what only humans can do – the human-only skills, traits and mindsets. If you work like a robot, a robot will take your job – and if you learn like a robot, you will end up working for THEM. Technology and Science / STEM will continue to be a major focus of education, but I believe that HECI (Humanity, Ethics, Creativity and Imagination) must be the core of educational systems, going forward. If you want your kids to be successful in the future, teach them to be MORE HUMAN (not less)!

Today’s professionals, leaders and their organisations need a dedicated, passionate long-term understanding of the future if they are to successfully navigate the exponential waves of change. For countless individuals and organizations that intelligence is called Gerd Leonhard.
