Generational, technological, and cultural changes are challenging every traditional notion of work. Companies have two choices: reactively struggle to adjust or take control – reinventing work to align with the evolving environment. But how? In this session, futurist Rishad Tobaccowala will examine the five interwoven forces reshaping work as we know it. Drawing from his latest book, he will reveal where work will happen, how it will be done and what the work itself will look like. Discover strategies to prepare for these profound changes and get ahead of the “Great Rethinking.”

In this mind-expanding episode of The ADOTAT Show, Rishad Tobaccowala — marketing visionary, business philosopher, and the man who’s been calling out the corporate charade long before it became fashionable -dives headfirst into the uncomfortable truths most leaders are too scared — or too siloed —t o admit. He drops hard truths about the death of traditional leadership, the failure of most org structures, and why Gen Z will never want your job (and probably shouldn’t).
