"AI will fundamentally reshape how we design organizations, transforming agility, redefining managerial responsibilities, and opening entirely new ways of working."

Dr Dieter Veldsman

Chief HR Scientist at the Academy to Innovate HR

"The biggest organizational ‘re-structure’ is the balance of power within the organization: Tech/IT has moved from being that ‘useful’ team to ‘essential’ for the future success of the company."

Toby Newman

L&D Consultant

"To unlock AI’s potential, we must let go of rigid hierarchies and build structures that enable human-AI collaboration, connect cross-functional teams, and embed agility at its core."

Dr Marna van der Merwe

Research & Insights Lead at the Academy to Innovate HR

"As AI makes individuals more autonomous, managers must evolve from control-oriented roles into strategic advisors, client-facing problem-solvers, and human connection builders."

Daria Rudnik

Team Architect at Aidra.AI

"New roles and responsibilities will emerge, especially around ethics and governance. You will need people who think critically about the implications of AI decisions and what they mean for culture, for values, and for the way the company operates."

Kristel Moedt

Co-Founder & Chief People Officer at People masterminds

"I think the future of work is heading toward individual contributors managing AI agents. So instead of just doing the work themselves, ICs will be orchestrating and overseeing agents to get things done."

Christopher Weggler

Head of People Operations at commercetools

"Critical thinking is going to be absolutely paramount - in a world of 'hallucinations' and AI bias, we really need to learn how to challenge what our tools create, produce, and say."

Toni Cairns

Founder of YellowBox

"The durability of your career is really about investing in deepening your core specialty, then broadening your AI fluency, data literacy, and change management, while periodically stretching diagonally into adjacent skills that you need."
