Two forces are rewriting the labour market at the same time: artificial intelligence, and the plain fact that Germany can no longer close its talent gap from inside its own borders.

We usually discuss them separately. I am increasingly convinced they are one story.

Happy to announce that I will be a keynote speaker at the Future Career Festival on 15 October. 

I will share where careers are heading, what AI changes for the people doing the work, and what global talent should be doing now to prepare for it.

Looking forward to seeing you at the Future Career Festival on 15 October.
