World Economic Forum Video: Cyber Expert's Safety Tips & UN Chief Talks Humanitarian Crises | WEF | Top Stories Week

Play Video: Cyber Expert's Safety Tips & UN Chief Talks Humanitarian Crises | WEF | Top Stories Week

This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 Online safety tips from cyber expert – Rupal Hollenbeck leads cybersecurity firm Check Point Software. Today’s online space is much more hyperconnected than it used to be, she says. Gen Z uses the internet in a different way to older users, says Hollenbeck, who may be alarmed at what young people choose to share online. But the cybersecurity industry needs to accept this new reality and ‘lean into it’, she says. 4:16 UN chief talks humanitarian crises – In December, the UN released its annual review of the scale of worldwide need. In total, 305 million people need urgent humanitarian aid from Syria and sub-Saharan Africa to Myanmar, Venezuela and Ukraine. At the same time, 2024 was the deadliest year ever to be a humanitarian worker. Tom Fletcher took over the UN humanitarian affairs office in October. He says that while the task is daunting, multilateral cooperation is essential to success. 8:49 How history can help leaders today – According to Mohit Joshi, CEO of Tech Mahindra, understanding history can shape better leaders by offering valuable insights into how societies adapt to change. As the world navigates the rapid transformation brought by the AI revolution, Joshi highlights how past events like the Industrial Revolution, the rise of railroads, and mechanization provide a template for understanding technological adoption and its long-term societal impact. 12:00 Climate scientists’ warning to business – Even as the world strives to hit net-zero targets, things will get worse before they get better. But for businesses that take action today, there will be opportunities amid the upheaval. Every $1 that businesses invest in climate adaptation and resilience today could generate up to $19 in returns tomorrow. These benefits will appear from several directions, says Johan Rockström, Director of Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

Play Video: Adam Grant: Future leaders won't succeed without this key trait

Big shifts must happen to ready teams for a work future that requires agile thinking and collaborating with emerging tech. Organizational psychologist, best-selling author and Wharton professor Adam Grant shares research-backed strategies that help develop leaders and work relationships across an organization as well as help teams practice critical soft skills like analysis and creativity that are often overlooked and undervalued. He explains why future workers will need to become “job crafters,” and the one trait leaders won’t be able to work without. He’ll also share what a college job as a magician taught him about engaging skeptics (and prompting critical thinking) and why he swears by keeping a “To-Don’t” list.
