Getting a job that we love and are good at is one of the biggest things we all hope to achieve one day. Not only will it give us a sense of purpose and direction in our lives, but it will also give us the money we need to do everything else we want. But with tech moving so fast, what we know about jobs, and the best way to train ourselves to get one will be unrecognizable in the future – if you’re not paying attention.

What does the future of education and employment look like?

We recently had a chat with CEO of ReadyTech Marc Washbourne about the future of education and employment. In the chat, Marc shared his story of growing his business to become a leader in the tech industry and offered his expert advice on how new technology will shape how we think about jobs in the future.

The video below shows a portion of the full conversation which you can check out here. In this section of the webinar, Marc tells what advice he would give to anyone in high school who's looking to make their mark in the world of business. He also discusses the influence of technology on the workplace, and how crucial having a technological skillset really is to getting a job.

Marc Washbourne is CEO of the ASX-listed ReadyTech, an Australian tech company focused on the futures of work and education. A former tech developer, Marc has grown ReadyTech from a small Sydney software company to a leading tech enterprise with a global team. His WorkED podcast brings leading thinkers in the fields of education, employment and technology come together to share their personal work stories and challenge the thinking, business models, community assumptions and policies being reshaped or upended by technology. #WorkEd
