CLOSING KEYNOTE

11:00 a.m.-11:25 a.m.

The Future of Work [V] [OD] 3:30 p.m.-4:45 p.m., New Orleans Theater PRESENTER: Tom Koulopoulos, Delphi Group Companies are struggling to navigate a perfect storm of economic, workforce, and market disruption, the likes of which we have never seen on such a large and prolonged scale. However, that doesn’t mean that it can’t be done, only that we need to be creative and courageous enough to change the way we approach much of what we’ve come to accept as the way we work and run our businesses. In this keynote, Tom Koulopoulos provides a roadmap for navigating the future of a workplace where humans and digital workers will work side by side, marketplaces where friction is virtually eliminated, the role that AI will play in reimagining work, and the critical issues of managing Gen Z and Gen Alpha. This is a watershed moment in history; some companies will reinvent themselves and the way they engage with employees, customers, and partners, while others will be quickly left behind. Simply put, there is opportunity in the uncertainty. The takeaway will be a positive and realistic look at how to reimagine the work. Closing session sponsored by
