The Future of Work: dead-end jobs or decent, meaningful work

Maeve O’Sullivan (Lecturer in Management & Decent Work)
The term 'Future of Work', popularised by the International Labor Organization and consultancy firms like McKinsey, captures the idea that work and workplaces may be undergoing radical changes due to the interactions of a range of trends including technological change, 4th industrial revolution, globalisation and migration, increasing longevity and climate change.
The confident predictions of experts as to what will change (and how) are more often wrong than right. This discussion will explore how these trends are already impacting societies, organisations, individuals and the quality of work.

Is a society free from fear possible?

Prof Stephen Kinsella (Professor)
Happiness is increasing almost everywhere, but happiness is not equal over your life. New research shows what we need to do to be happy, but a surprising amount of research suggests what we need most after our basic needs are met is not more resources, but freedom from fear. This talk will give you a peak at the latest research and suggest three ways to make society (and your life) less fearful.
