description | The technology innovation, especially in the case of artificial intelligence, has significantly
transformed the work processes and how they are organised and performed. Even if the
adoption of advanced technologies usually leads to a higher work performance, there are
risks of negative disruptions in the working systems, such as non-ethical use and social
negative effects. The paper presents the results of an ethnographic research conducted by the
authors, with the objective to identify the impact of the artificial intelligence adoption in the
workplace on the professional knowledge and skills requirements and on the upskilling and
reskilling strategies. Three different domains were considered: information technology,
education, and scientific research. One relevant conclusion of the research is that knowledge
and skills requirements should be studied from multiple perspectives, such as profession
dynamics, not only from the technology innovation perspective. The research originality
mainly consists in the way in which the concept of the level of upskilling/reskilling
importance is defined and applied, based on professional knowledge and skills development
requirements. By using the assessed level of upskilling/reskilling importance, strategies and
related actions may be defined and undertaken. By substantiating this manner of setting up the upskilling and reskilling strategies and actions, the research has a theoretical and practical
impact in the domain of talent management. |
