1 billion jobs will be transformed over the next decade. 400 million workers will likely need to change their job or skill sets to be relevant in the future. And this was before COVID-19.

Innovation exists in many forms, and next generation digital platforms have the potential to improve how companies resource their HR teams and departments. Developing predictive capabilities that can anticipate changes in the workforce, both internally and externally, is a key challenge. Deploying both integrated external and internal data sources can be part of the solution – if appropriately combined with other approaches to understanding the human capital needs of the job, team and business process levels.

This fireside chat features Dr. Alec Levenson, senior research scientist at USC Marshall's Center for Effective Organizations (CEO), and thought leader on organizational behavior and the psychology of work. He’ll address the challenges of setting up data infrastructures that yield actionable insights, and the necessary complementary strategies that deploy next-gen measurement and sense-making to build the required job, team, and business process capabilities.

This webinar is part of a series of global volatility virtual events featuring thought leaders in finance, business intelligence and data. It is brought to you by Thinknum Alternative Data in partnership with Slack's External Data Community channel and the Alternative Data Community Forum.
