How can students prepare for careers shaped by artificial intelligence, automation, and hybrid work? In this episode of the College of Arts and Sciences Dean’s Future Of series, Dean Richard Greenwald and Stephanie Gallo speak with business leader Andrew Feigenson about the skills that remain valuable as technology changes how organizations operate.
Their conversation explores the future of entry-level work, the importance of critical thinking and data literacy, and the role of curiosity, authenticity, and accountability in professional growth. They also discuss building relationships in hybrid workplaces, evaluating company culture, learning from failure, and approaching a career as an evolving portfolio rather than a fixed path. Watch to discover practical ways students can combine adaptable skills with a broad understanding of history, society, and human behavior.
