Strategies of Irreplaceability
Martin Wehrle
"Be unique, not well-behaved."
Adaptation leads to replaceability. Irreplaceable is he who questions the status quo and acts as a corrective. AI is conservative; humans must be disruptive.
Dr. Bernd Slaghuis
"Change of perspective instead of work to rule."
Intrinsic motivation arises from value congruence. Those who understand their work as meaningful perform better than any algorithm.
Svenja Hofert
"Self-transcendence as a skill."
The ego disturbs the network. True agility means putting one's own ego aside for the team and remaining mentally flexible.
Ragnhild Struss
"Deep Work & EQ."
Superficial work ("Busy Work") is automated. Concentrated problem solving and emotional intelligence are the human competitive advantage.
Jannike Stöhr
"Generalists beat specialists."
AI is the ultimate specialist. Humans score through breadth: The combination of different disciplines creates something new.
Ute Blindert
"Networks remain, knowledge becomes obsolete."
The "Connector", who connects people and ideas, creates social value that no platform can replace.
