Future of Work

At MIT Sloan, we’re leading the future of work. Through research and classroom teaching, we explore the technologies, systems, and leadership styles that profoundly affect organizations and workers everywhere. The MIT Sloan Work and Organization Studies Group studies what workers will need to succeed in jobs of the future and what leaders need to know to manage complex organizations and diverse teams; the MIT Institute for Work and Employment Research explores how work can be improved for both workers and organizations; and the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy examines how people and companies can adapt to new ways of doing business. Courses taught by our faculty and coaching offered by the MIT Leadership Center help students gain the fundamental knowledge of organizational structures and processes and develop the necessary skills to lead the workforce of the future.
