AI Is Making Human Skills More Valuable Than Ever

from Personalization Outbreak · host Glenn Llopis

"The technical skills only take you so far. The durable skills are what allow you to really excel, allow people who know how to do things to become leaders or managers of other people who do those things, maybe, down the road. We all know people who know how to do things, but don't ascend to helping others do things or leading others who do things. And that's because the deficits may be in durable skills more than anything else."AI isn’t replacing human potential.It’s exposing what actually makes humans valuable.In this episode of the Personalization Outbreak Podcast, John Woods—Chief Academic Officer at the University of Phoenix—joins Glenn Llopis to explain: 🤖 Why AI is transforming how people learn faster than ever before🧠 Why “durable skills” like self-awareness and judgment matter more now⚠️ The hidden risk of relying on technical skills alone🎯 How workers are independently learning AI while organizations struggle to adapt🌱 Why identity, dignity, and mentorship are becoming competitive advantages💥 What companies must do now to retain talent in the AI eraIf organizations focus only on productivity, they’ll miss the real transformation happening underneath.Because the future of work won’t belong to the most automated people.It’ll belong to the most adaptable human beings.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Video Content:0:00 Intro09:35 AI Is Changing Learning Faster Than Organizations Can Adapt12:17 Establishing institutional context, value, and responsibility using AI16:07 AI Is Changing Learning Faster Than Organizations Can Adapt22:46 Why Durable Skills Matter More Than Ever24:51 Why Durable Skills Matter More Than Ever27:19 AI Is Disrupting Traditional Career Paths32:04 Technical Skills Are Becoming Commoditized34:16 Why Human Dignity Matters During AI Adoption43:17 The Future of Work Belongs to Adaptable Humans----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🎧 Listen now and learn how AI is reshaping education, leadership, and career growth.📺 Full episode available on YouTube----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#AI #FutureOfWork #Leadership #Education #CareerDevelopment #JohnWoods #UniversityOfPhoenix #GlennLlopis #Podcast #PersonalizationOutbreak #ArtificialIntelligence #WorkplaceLearning #HumanSkills ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------JOIN THE MOVEMENT:GLLG Company Website: https://www.glennllopis.com/Age Of Personalization Website: https://ageofpersonalization.com/Contact Us: https://www.glennllopis.com/contact-us/Email Us: [email protected] GLENN LLOPIS:LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3tnBmP9Instagram: https://bit.ly/3fcziRVFacebook: https://bit.ly/33sCg1KTwitter: https://bit.ly/3HVT14B

Pandemic Goldhawk | Wondery A devastating global outbreak engulfs the world’s most populous cities… and unlocks a terrible secret. “Red Eye” a new flu-like virus engulfs the most populous cities around the world. It starts with eye itch, then bleeding, quickly followed by blindness and death. An infectious disease specialist, in Bangkok, Thailand for a conference, is invited to help contain an outbreak of local bird flu; in the UK a civil servant investigates the suicide of a government scientist; and a teacher re-connecting with his ex-girlfriend finds himself drawn into a deadly game of environmental espionage.
