Behavioral economics tells us that humans prefer the comfort of the status quo over the effort of adaptation. But, if it's true that 85 percent of the jobs of 2030 don't yet exist, this could be a major problem.

Third, L&D leaders should allow a "culture of inquiry" to spread, one in which employees, fully understanding the need to adapt, will take initiative and pleasure in their continuous professional development.
