AI Pushes Deloitte to Redefine Roles and Rethink Career Paths

Published: 9 February 2026

As Deloitte rewrites job titles for more than 180,000 U.S. employees, Simon Blanchette, a lecturer at Թ’s Desautels Faculty of Management, says the shift reflects broader pressures facing Canadian employers as AI transforms workplace responsibilities.

Blanchette notes that many titles no longer match the realities of modern roles, explaining, “Consistently, job titles don’t always reflect what the jobs were five years ago.” With work evolving faster than traditional hierarchies, he argues that organizations must rethink rigid career ladders and adapt structures to reflect how responsibilities have expanded and diversified in the era of AI.
