Are you ready for future globalization? Everyone knows about the rise of the robots, but the same digital technologies are also creating a new "virtual" globalization – where talented foreigners sitting abroad can work alongside us in our offices. Due to advanced telecommunications and machine translation, it will seem almost as if these "tele-migrants" are actually there and speaking the same language. Think of it as the "gig" economy gone global. Richard’s talk illuminates a path to preparing for the changes.
