Event Summary

Today’s workplace is characterized by technological innovation, digitalization, and the rapid augmentation of human skills with intelligent machines. As machine augmentation of the workplace grows, employees will be valued less for their hard skills, such as accounting and mathematics or even data analysis, and more for their ability to think creatively and analytically, to engage in building interpersonal relationships, and to display high emotional intelligence—so called soft skills. This webinar presents the dual skills gaps facing wealth and asset managers—hard and soft, examines their outsized impact on the future success of the organization, and explores ways organizations can start to fill these gaps.
