ABSTRACT
Technology is a tool that facilitates work. In the past, technology has strengthened social and economic hierarchies. However, now that we are approaching the Fourth Industrial Revolution, where the new technology is characterized by the use of intelligent robots, artificial intelligence and intelligent algorithms, it is probable that changes are underway. Global capitalism functions in such a way that the new jobs within the area of human competence will face strong competition from areas of the world where wages and welfare benefits are far lower than in most Western countries. This chapter examines what social and emotional competences will be in demand in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and what leadership competences will be in demand in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
