The 4th industrial era and arrival/application of machine learning technology is being felt across all businesses, prompting organisations to look at how to shape tomorrow. What will new jobs be like in the future? IBM CEO Ginni Rometty coined a term for what he thinks these new jobs will be - New Collar Jobs. What can professionals, entrepreneurs, parents and everyone in between do to remain relevant in the future, and how will these new collar jobs help the economy/society thrive? David Raper from IBM has the answers.
