[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The first part of the 21st century has seen an increase use of digitalization and AI in the workplace. The changes have had a global impact, resulting in multiple industry disruptions. In essence, the ongoing transformation is a source of increasing debate about its current and future impact on society. As digitalization disrupts just about every aspect of life, new forms of the economy are emerging. Some experts argue that we are at the dawn of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In the fallout of the shift, several stakeholders are increasingly concerned about its impacts on work, jobs, health, safety, trust, security, sustainability, etc. As academics, we have an important role to play in contributing to and shaping the ongoing debate, while preparing our students to be tomorrow’s leaders.
This conference’s call is open to a discussion of perspectives on economic, cultural, technological, sustainability, and ethical factors that affect global managers in this new era. How can we leverage yet mitigate and eliminate the negative impacts of this fast-moving transformation? How can we contribute to the creation of the future for society that sustains responsible economic development in the era of intelligent tools and systems?
The theme is meant to be interpreted broadly, and submissions not addressing the theme are also welcomed. Scholars are invited to explore opportunities for research in ways that look at past (retrospect) and future (prospect) challenges and opportunities that businesses in these countries face in engaging with the rest of the world. Following past conference practice, there will be a mix of academic sessions, site visits, cultural activities, and keynote addresses by local experts. Papers addressing the practical approaches to dealing with challenges in European countries will be grouped with papers dealing with similar issues from other parts of the world to create comparative sessions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_hoverbox image=”20″ primary_title=”” hover_title=”” hover_btn_title=”Submissions Accepted Through December 13th” hover_btn_color=”blue” hover_add_button=”true”]
