How to succeed in the hyper-human economy

White-collar work is increasingly being automated, or off-peopled, just as happened with farming and manufacturing work. To survive, workers will need to develop skills that can't be performed by machines. As information technology automates white- and blue-collar functions alike, most of the remaining jobs as we know them are being transferred into all-electronic systems. A new class of jobs has yet to be named: work involving hard automating hyper-human skills that go beyond know-how. The right strategy is as know-how gets easier and easier to store and apply through networks and automatic systems, the winning strategy is to move up from know-how work to hyper-human or meta-mental work, which consists of those functions that computers cannot easily replicate. In order to move to a hyper-human future, we need to mobilize, hyper-human skills right now: clear, sensible thinking as well as caring, responsible goal setting, planning, and determination.
