This thought leadership piece from Regent Business School speaks directly to the shifting demands of the modern workforce in an era of rapid AI integration.

Co-authored by Hoosen Essof, Head of the Employability Unit, and Deepti Govind, who is currently working as in intern in the same division, this article explores how AI and automation are reshaping industries; and why cultivating human-centric skills through strategic business education is essential for long-term career resilience.

What makes this piece distinctive is its dual perspective: institutional leadership paired with a fresh, on-the-ground view from a student navigating these changes in real time. Together, the authors offer a compelling argument for why emotional intelligence, creativity, adaptability, and ethical judgement remain irreplaceable in an AI-enhanced world.
