AI GOVERNANCE · WORKFORCE TRANSFORMATION
Qiqing He works at the intersection of AI governance, workforce transformation, education, and public-interest institutions, translating technical change into institutional readiness.
Selected work includes World Economic Forum analysis, cross-country AI education dialogues, and policy-facing briefs on AI workforce transformation.

Between 2024 and 2030, AI will move from a software category to institutional infrastructure. Labour markets will reorganise. Schools will be asked to redesign what they teach. Governments and firms will need new capacity to govern systems they do not fully control.
“The question is no longer whether AI will reshape work and learning. It is whether institutions will be ready — or redesigned around it by default.”
Working notes, 2026
A curated record of published writing, policy briefs, case signals, convenings, and World Economic Forum contributions on AI governance, workforce transformation, education, and institutional readiness.
Policy essays, briefs, and frameworks on AI, education, workforce transformation, and institutional readiness.
Cross-country conversations with educators, practitioners, youth leaders, researchers, enterprise leaders, and institutional actors.
Support for organizations moving from AI experimentation to governed, human-centred adoption.
AI adoption is becoming an operating-model question, not only a technology decision.
How should organizations redesign workflows, roles, and governance before scaling AI?
What should leaders, managers, teachers, and public officials actually understand?
What changes when AI becomes embedded in daily institutional workflows?
What should education systems teach when cognitive work is being reshaped?
When AI becomes embedded infrastructure, governance, procurement, and accountability have to move from pilots to operating models.
Workforce transition is not a training problem alone. It is a redesign of the institutions that organise roles, workflows, and legitimacy.
Public institutions need the internal capacity to evaluate, commission, and contest systems they are expected to govern in the public interest.
A selective set of institutional signals and concrete outputs.

Four connected questions shape my current work.
How should firms, governments, and workers redesign roles, workflows, and institutions as AI changes cognitive work?
How should education systems prepare students not only to use AI, but to govern, question, and work with intelligent systems?
What capacities do institutions need before they can responsibly deploy AI at scale?
How can cross-country evidence help policymakers and practitioners learn faster from implementation?
