Sustainable careers lead to sustainable growth for both employees and businesses
We live in a volatile, complex, ambiguous, and uncertain world. In 5 years’ time, finance jobs will be very different from today. However, no one can estimate precisely how they will change, which new roles will be added, and which will disappear.
