Focus 2040 was a competition challenging students in business faculties across Canada to describe the world of work in the year 2040.  Participants predicted the future as they imagine it will be – the worker, the organization and the processes that bring these two together – and then supported their predictions.  The most imaginative, creative and compelling predictions won.
