The Fourth Industrial Revolution while creating many new
opportunities, is inevitably going to lead to uncertainty around
specific jobs and roles, particularly those of knowledge workers and
in the innovation economy. To understand which jobs will be uncertain
as society moves towards the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Johannessen
adopts three time-perspectives. The short-term perspective, five to
fifteen years. The medium-term perspective, fifteen to thirty years.
Currently there is little interest in the long term-perspective, but
this time perspective extends from approximately thirty to fifty years
ahead. In the short and accessible text, Johannessen answers the
question of which jobs will be uncertain regarding these timelines
with the main focus on the short and medium-term perspectives. A
forewarning of possible future competences, by means of expectation
signals, will enable people to acquire the competences that will be
demanded by the new technology. This can be of benefit to students
when planning their studies, so they can adapt their education to
future changes; it can also be of benefit to schools and universities,
so they can make changes to their curricula. In addition, it will also
be of relevance to the authorities, so that they can provide more
high-tech educations, with a focus on the new technology that is
emerging.
