TASK 2
Evaluating a source
The rise in global citizens has nothing to do with decrement in nationalists. The survey
was being carried out by taking three-fourths of 85000 respondents from 60 countries. It was
conducted by World Values Survey between 2010 and 2014 particularly which are global
citizens. It can be analysed that researchers were amazed by results of research. Nearly 82 %
respondents were identified with their nation and 74 % were very proud of their nationality. It
can be ascertained that 68 % of 2176 respondents from USA provided their view as strong and
moderate degree of global citizenship (Bayram. 2017). The global citizens in which more than 46
% strongly identified with USA and 61 % were proud to be called as American citizen. This was
being similar in Asia, The Middle East and Europe.
From the survey, it is clarified that most of global citizens are not going to shed off their
nationality. In simple words, citizens no matter where do they live, they are still protective of
national interests beneath them. The global citizens answered that they are going to put their
country's issues first as they love their national identity. Global citizenship eventually means an
acquired social identity which is shaped with reference to how individuals prioritise their values
like universalism and self-enhancement in the best way possible. Thus, it can be concluded
despite rise in globalism, it does not mean that nationalists have boycotted their national identity.
They love their own countries which has been justified through the survey which was being
carried out.
TASK 4
Paraphrasing paragraph
PwC has conducted a survey regarding millennials of which 88 % feels and want to work
for the company which puts similar value what employees wanted. This is not ended over hear as
86 % of millennials says that they would easily leave employer if corporate responsibility is
longer meeting their expectations. Young millennials are aware of personal fulfilment in building
their own careers in the way they wanted it to be (Purpose-led business- The crisis of capitalism
and the unlikely solution. 2018). It clearly shows that employer can no longer make call to pay
lip-service for important issues such as sustainability, equality and gender diversity. It is
1

important to know that employees are far more attractive and enthusiastic and they are
contributing it to social good causes. It means that businesses no longer have to appear socially
ethical on surface as it is not enough. Instead, businesses should be appealing to employees and
incorporate purpose-driven attitude.
Strong team ethos is what can be likelihood of high on success business. If employers
would like to have successful businesses and which truly motivate workforce, it is required to
work with them under a common vision. It is true that shareholders and owners who invests their
'hard earned money' in company for expecting better financial return. However, if an employee
working and putting his own efforts and time for socially good causes, he would be a powerful
motivator. Hence, it can be said that for attaining success of business at a higher scale, workforce
is required to be motivated and business requires to understand common vision between both of
them.
TASK 5
Information from sources regarding AI and the Future of Work
Source 1
The President of MIT, Rafael Reif presided in a speech regarding the AI which is
changing the future of work in a better manner. The students are going to be well-equipped with
advanced technology which is changing how the work was being attained in past several decades
(AI and the Future of Work. 2017). It can be ascertained that businesses in the future will be able
to attain higher efficiency in the best manner possible by relying on AI information.
Source 2
There is nearly 50 % chance that machines will eventually outperform humans in all daily
tasks in next 45 years carried out in survey of more than 350 AI researchers. This means that AI
will turn out to be master of all activities and will get better enough by 2024 to translate
languages. Moreover, writing high-school essays by the end of 2026 and eventually, driving
truck by 2027. In 2031, retail sector and writing book of best seller by 2049 and surgery till
2053. Within, 120 years from now, human jobs will become automated in this time span.
Source 3
PwC and OECD have identified sectors which will benefit the most such as education,
scientific and technical work, information and communication and accommodation and food
2

services. Other sectors administrative work include finance and insurance, retail, construction,
public administration, construction, transport and manufacturing. Hence, AI will create jobs with
the same pace of destroying it.
