A practical approach to Industry 4.0
The nature of work and hiring are changing. If companies do not change their game, they will lose out in the intensifying race to attract and keep talent.
WITH recent news of retrenchments and economic uncertainty especially for PMETs (professionals, managers, executives and technicians), a key concern for most people is remaining employable in an uncertain time. With this in mind, the Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) conducted a series of discussions during a recent seminar on Human Capital Development in Industry 4.0.
The seminar brought together business owners, educational institutions, futurists and policy-makers to define the ambiguous Industry 4.0 term and to discuss how businesses, workers and policy-makers can adapt to the changing times. While a broad range of topics were discussed, several key ideas were iterated throughout the entire seminar.
