Think Like a Futurist:
Core Skills for 2030
In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world, rapid technological development, economic uncertainty, geoeconomic restructuring, the green transition, and demographic shifts are gradually reshaping the future of work. This raises an important question: in such a world, how should we reimagine our careers?
In this interactive workshop, participants will think like futurists, starting from the future to imagine work scenarios in 2030, and then work backward to consider which skills they need to develop in order to remain competitive and influential in an uncertain environment.

The workshop is based on the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 and uses skill mapping, trend analysis, and small-group discussions to help participants understand how five global trends are driving shifts in skill demand, and to explore the most critical core skills for 2030.
