Workplace 4.0: Using Data to Develop Leadership That Lasts Industry 4.0 is a new phase in the Industrial Revolution that focuses heavily on interconnectivity, automation, machine learning, and real-time data. While companies have begun to embrace this future, few have considered how it will impact their workplace culture.
