Networking Lunch (Sydney): The Next Gen - Are you Ready for the Future

The Networking

This event is now closed for online registrations, if you are interested in attending please email kerrie@ausae.org.au.

We invite you to take a couple of hours out of your day to connect with others in the industry to discuss high level topics of real importance, develop new relationships and gain critical information. This is a rare opportunity to network with other CEOs and senior management professionals from charities, associations and other non-profit organisations. Ample opportunity will be given for you to discuss issues and network with others.

The Topic

Weirder, but not necessarily meaner: are our organisations ready for a changed world?

Almost 40% of Australian jobs have a likelihood of disappearing in the next 10 to 15 years because of the tech revolution. The future of work will be made up of jobs that don’t yet exist within industries and using technologies that are new, in planetary conditions that no human being has ever experienced. Given that there is no status quo option, we need a fundamental debate over the shape and purpose of the new economy. How do we achieve a new economy squarely in the service of society, not only geared towards ecological limits, but also oriented to fairness and justice?
