WorkHuman Deep Dive (Part 2): The Future of Work: It’s Complicated (But Still Human)
In Part Two of our deep dive into the WorkHuman Conference, WTF is Business Casual hosts Jenny and Sarah pick up where they left off—this time digging into the big, bold conversations around AI, leadership, and what it really takes to build a human-centered workplace.
Trevor Noah set the tone with humor and heart, reminding us that curiosity isn’t optional—it’s essential. And while AI dominated the agenda, the real takeaway? It’s not about replacing humans. It’s about empowering them.
In this episode, they tackle:
- How AI is already shaping team dynamics (for better or worse)
- Why HR should be steering the AI conversation, not just reacting to it
- How curiosity, resilience, and re-skilling are muscles every leader needs to strengthen
Less hype, more human. And maybe a few laughs along the way.
🎧 Hit play—because the future of work isn’t waiting, and neither should you!
