ABSTRACT

The traits of futures are the main forces to be factored in the equation of the futures. They model, like incorporeal potters, the clay describing the future landscape. Depending on their combination, the resulting “vase” has a different form, fit, and function. As new disciplines will surface, aggregate and develop in the totipotent waters of the futures, new HR leaders will need to grow their skills to understand this sea, navigate its waves of change, and make the team thrive in a stable ship. HR leaders will have to keep developing hard and functional traditional HR skills and complement them with soft and fusion skills to build trust; amplify and deploy skills to gain respect.
