Is There More Job Opportunity or Job Loss Due To Automation?
11/29/21 • 8 min
I want to discuss job automation and job loss and what this means for jobs in the future.
Globally, It’s already been a wild year and the future of the workplace might feel even a little more uncertain for some. Robots taking over jobs in the near future is a real possibility as we have tasted a crisis that has, for the most part, shut the world down.
The question on many people’s lips is ‘will robots take our jobs?’ and the simple answer is, over time - yes they will. We’ve already seen it happen with the installation of ATMs and self-service checkouts in the grocery store. AI taking jobs is the modern world that we live in.
However, I want to pose to you the idea that jobs in the future, while potentially different from today's, will be abundant and require something that only humans can give. And that’s what I want to discuss in today’s video.
Will robots take my job?
Will robots replace humans?
Yes.
But jobs that will disappear will be replaced by new jobs that, I believe, will bring even more professional fulfilment.

Starting a Social Enterprise in Australia: What You Need To Know
Are you thinking of starting an enterprise here in Australia that has a social purpose? Perhaps starting a social enterprise is something you have in your long term business plan?
Well, starting a social purpose enterprise is a little different to starting a nonprofit organisation and many people think they are one in the same. I want to use this episode to walk you through the differences and what that actually means for you as you start your enterprise.
To be clear, this is not a social enterprise vs nonprofit in terms of which is better but rather which is better for you and your goals.

My guidelines for finding an accountant
Finding an accountant can be a daunting task at the best of times. On the one hand there is an abundance of accountants all seemingly performing the same duties. On the other hand, how do you know who to trust? Do they specialise in your type of business? How do you go about asking the right questions when you’re hiring an accountant?
I’m going to answer these questions and more in today’s episode. Hiring an accountant for small business doesn’t have to be scary and you don’t need to fear it. Knowing how to choose an accountant really comes down to the values you hold and whether or not the accountants you talk to hold similar values to you.
So, listen and learn how to pick an accountant, learn the difference between a cpa and accountant and take notes on the questions to ask your accountant to help inform your final decisions.
