The Most Important Skill for the Future? Thinking!

69% of companies worldwide say that analytical thinking is the most important skill for their workforce.

Not coding.
Not perfect mastery of AI tools.
But rather: thinking.

The latest Future of Jobs Report from the World Economic Forum clearly shows: Many of the top-ranked skills cannot simply be automated. And they aren’t developed in a 90-minute online training session either.

Resilience. Creativity. Leadership. Social influence.
These aren’t skills you either have or don’t have. They are abilities that grow. Consciously. Through interaction. Over time.

This is precisely the question that interests us:
How do we create spaces where people can truly develop these future skills?

On July 2, we invite you to Linz. At the Future Skills Inspiration Lab, we’ll speak with Margit Klima-Bencic, Human Resource Director at MIC, about leadership, HR, and the honest question:

How do we guide people through transformation without losing our own footing?

No lecture.
Instead, an evening for reflection, exchange, and forward thinking.

Place Linz, WKOÖ
Doors open: 17:30
Start: 18:00
