#8 Future of the Arbeitsmarkt - Innovation, Trends and Challenges

In this episode we want to look towards the future of the German labor market or “Arbeitsmarkt”: How is the German labor market developing and which jobs will be in demand in the future? To answer these questions, we invited two guests. Prof. Dr. Florian Kunze has held the Chair of Organizational Behavior at the Department of Politics and Management at the University of Konstanz since July 2014 and is the director of the Future of Work Lab in Konstanz.
