AI Replacing Consultants, Gen Z's Leadership Wake-Up Call, and Why Big Tech's $400 Billion Still Isn't Enough

AI Replacing Consultants, Gen Z's Leadership Wake-Up Call, and Why Big Tech's $400 Billion Still Isn't Enough

October 31, 2025: In today's Future Ready Today, PwC quietly abandons its global hiring target as AI begins replacing entry-level consultants and reshaping professional services. Gen Z enters management valuing purpose and wellbeing but faces a growing need for accountability. Danone redeploys 90 percent of employees affected by restructuring, showing how workforce agility and empathy can coexist. Amazon cuts 14,000 corporate jobs in an AI-driven push to run leaner and faster, while Big Tech pours $400 billion into AI infrastructure—and still can't meet surging demand. Meanwhile, CEOs at JPMorgan, Airbnb, and others ban phones in meetings to reclaim focus and respect.
