The journey to 2030: Choosing the human agenda

The decade that began in 2020 is not the one people expected and planned for in 2019. The world has been plunged into an age of instability and profound discontinuity that holds both extraordinary opportunities and unprecedented challenges, all while reshaping the business landscape in ways that are deep, structural, and enduring. In this episode, host Burt Rea is joined by Yves Van Durme and Jeff Schwartz from Gloat to discuss Deloitte’s recently released report, The journey to 2030: Choosing the human agenda, diving into the seven shifts reshaping organizations in a disruptive decade.

We get to choose right now. We get to think about what that frame is. And I think that’s what is absolutely fascinating about the journey to 2030, is the decisions we make in the next 12 or 18 or 24 months—certainly between now and the beginning of 2025—will put in motion where we will be in 2030 and what the human agenda and experience is going to be like.

The path to 2030: Seven shifts and their human agenda implications

The pandemic-driven Great Disruption and Great Resignation have been creating and accelerating seven business and societal shifts that are altering the trajectory of organizations’ human agendas in the run-up to 2030. Some shifts already in progress have accelerated, and other shifts are emerging, and we may anticipate their progression. In all cases, their impacts on the future of work, workforce, and workplace are likely to be disruptive and profound. How business leaders respond to challenges and opportunities in this unstable environment may either immobilize or propel their organizations forward.

The decade ending in 2030 starts in 2022. It is time for HR and business leaders to apply learnings from the past two years to these seven shifts and choose the human agenda to generate organizational resiliency and thrive in a disrupted and disruptive marketplace.
