Introduction
By combining digitalisation, artificial intelligence, and hybrid work models, new and different work models have been created. As a result, some traditional professions are disappearing, and new jobs are taking their place. Business psychologists are becoming more common, and in demand, as businesses and their employees adjust to these dramatic changes. Be it as a consultant or a talent manager.
In order to make companies excel in times of change and turn challenges into growth opportunities, you'll combine economic proficiency with business psychology tools and a strong manager inclination.
