Join Prof. Lisa Cohen and Scott McDonald, BCom'89, President and CEO, Oliver Wyman (London) as they discuss the future of work and business and McGill's role in shaping future-ready leaders to tackle challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic.

Well before the first case of COVID-19 was diagnosed, policy makers, scholars, and practitioners alike had been exploring how new developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning, robots, and the gig economy would reshape the labour market, but the extent of these effects is still debated widely.

COVID-19 is taking us rethink those debates by moving the office into the home, creating new tasks and eliminating long-established processes, and raising important questions about organizational culture and the management of diversity.

L'intelligence artificielle, l'apprentissage automatique, les robot et l'économie à la demande vont-ils transformer le marché du travail? Décideurs, savants et praticiens s'intéressent à la question depuis fort longtemps - bien avant l'arrivée de la pandémie -, mais les avis demeurent grandement partagés.

La COVID-19 est venue rebrasser les cartes en mettant le télétravail à l'ordre du jour, en donnant lieu à l'apparition de nouvelles tâches et à la disparition de processus bien établis, et en suscitant une importante réflexion sur la culture organisationnelle et la prise en charge de la diversité.
