Work in Transition: Opportunities and Challenges in the Era of Digitalization, Demographic Change and Environmental Transformation

Katarina RoderÖBB Infrastructure Head of People Development & Culture
Description
In an era of rapid technological and environmental shifts, we are facing fundamental changes in the labor market. Our pitch could address these key questions: • Demographic Change: With a predicted increase in the population over 65 and a decline in the number of working-age individuals, we are confronted with the challenge of optimally utilizing our available workforce. What strategies can companies and policymakers adopt to actively manage this demographic transition? • Digitalization and Automation:Artificial intelligence, automation, and technological advancements are radically transforming existing job roles. While new job profiles are emerging, many traditional roles are disappearing. How can we manage this transition and foster the necessary skills and competencies for the future? • New Work Models and Green Jobs: In the face of an acute shortage of skilled workers: especially in areas such as IT, finance, technology, and sales: we must tap into underutilized resources, including part-time workers, women, and older employees. Additionally, the challenges posed by the climate crisis present opportunities for green jobs that are not only environmentally sustainable but also economically promising.

Description
While the AI hype cycle pushes endless possibility, the real story of agentic AI in HR is still being written and it’s more complicated than most admit. In this unfiltered workshop discussion hear inside stories of deploying AI agents in functions like onboarding, benefits and ticketing…long before talent acquisition sees traction. We’ll explore how agentic AI changes operating models, where governance frameworks struggle, and what organizational readiness really means. This is not a celebration of success, but a grounded discussion of what it actually takes to implement these systems — and what others can learn from the trenches. This is the session where we talk about what’s hard, what’s hopeful and how to move forward with positive implementation aimed at helping others avoid common pitfalls and learn from real-world experience. Audience Takeaways: • More than just the interface of human vs IT: Fully integrating agentic AI into HR • Learn which agentic AI use cases are truly delivering value in HR today (and which are still immature) • Hear first-hand how peers are approaching AI governance, data risk, and ethical guardrails • Understand the organizational shifts needed to make agentic AI stick – from skills to ownership • Identify early implementation red flags and common traps to avoid • Leave better equipped to ask vendors and internal teams the right questions before investing
