Superheroes Wanted: Envisioning the Future of Work

For decades, we have imagined the future through the eyes of comic book heroes — from boy-next-door Peter Parker’s Spiderman to Amazon princess Wonder Woman. So, as we approach our next Cisco Hyperinnovation Living Lab, focused on the future of work, I thought we might explore that part of our future in the same way.

Will intelligent robots take our jobs, or work alongside and assist human workers? How will workers find stability in the gig economy? Will drones make us safer, or destroy our privacy? Who are the superheroes (or villains) who will shape the future of work?

Join me over the next several weeks to look at these and other questions about the future of work in this new comic-book series “To Save Tomorrow”.
