MAX Leadership Network Explores Themes for an Inclusive Future of Work with Accenture

December 15, 2019

During our December convening of our MAX Leadership Network, we heard from Gina Rude and Molly Birnbaum with Accenture about the Inclusive Future of Work initiative that is underway in the Atlanta region, in partnership with the Metro Atlanta Chamber. Birnbaum provided a deep dive into some recent data from Accenture on occupations with a high potential for either automation and technology augmentation. Following her presentation, Rude and Birnbaum led the network into a discussion around ideas for serving our workforce in the midst of these trends.

Accenture defines an inclusive future of work as a future in which all workers have the motivation, means and opportunity to adapt to and thrive in the digital economy. Click here to learn more.

As a prelude to the data presented by Accenture, the network first reviewed some data on insightful workforce-related perceptions, including views toward automation, from the 7th Annual Metro Atlanta Speaks survey with Jim Skinner with the Atlanta Regional Commission.

Metro Atlanta Speaks is a public opinion survey that tracks residents’ perceptions about transportation, the economy, quality of life, and civic engagement. In 2019, ARC added questions and emphasis on the topics of housing/neighborhood change and workforce development, specifically. Click here to learn more.
