The future of work is not about work, but about our value and our human skills, collaboration, creativity, empathy and problem solving. We are in the fifth industrial revolution. Technology (data & AI) are beginning to take over our thinking and feelings which can interfere with actual behaviors. That is why this time is also called the Era of Ethics. The future of ethics is about us as human beings and also our interaction with technology. This new way of Ethical Thinking must go beyond knowing the ethical themes and dilemma’s, and requires courage, integrity and a curious attitude to ask critical questions. As FutureWomen, we can start courageous conversations and take the lead in this dialogue, by being and leaning into our FutureMaker qualities and female leadership. In this Masterclass, Saskia will take you on a journey on ethics in the digital age, why we all need to become experts on ethics and how female leaders play a crucial role. Together we will dive into the courageous conversations that we must spark.
