Future Skills and Career Prospects in the Age of AI – The Role of Business School
A discussion with HHL professors and special guest David Döbele
Artificial Intelligence is transforming the world of work at an unprecedented pace. Many tasks that are currently part of the typical day-to-day responsibilities of young business graduates – from research and analysis to presentation creation and data processing – are increasingly being automated by intelligent systems. As AI reshapes industries and job profiles, an important question emerges: What skills will graduates need to thrive in the future labor market?
Join us for an engaging panel discussion featuring Prof. Dr. Alexander Lahmann (Vice Dean Programs at HHL), Prof. Dr. Florian Ellsaesser (Chairholder, Thalia Chair of Marketing and Retail at HHL) and co-founder of Pumpkincareers and career coach David Döbele as they explore the future of management education and careers in an AI-driven economy.
The discussion will address key questions, including:
- Which competencies will remain uniquely human and highly valued in the age of AI?
- What core skills should a leading business school equip its students with?
- How can graduates differentiate themselves when many traditional entry-level tasks are automated?
- What will career prospects look like in industries such as strategy consulting and finance?
- How should business education evolve to prepare future leaders for a rapidly changing world?
Whether you are a student, young professional, or simply interested in the future of work, this event offers valuable insights into how AI is redefining careers and the role of business schools in preparing the next generation of talent.
Date: June 23
Time: 5:00–6:00 PM
Location: HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management, Jahnallee 59, 04109 Leipzig
The event is open to everyone. We look forward to welcoming you to an insightful discussion on the future of skills, careers, and business education in the age of AI.
