Are robots REALLY coming for your role? Today, we’re talking about what AI actually means for your career and simple steps you can take now to stay ahead. In my last corporate role, there was a running joke I had IT Helpdesk on speed dial. Digital devices seem to self-destruct in my presence -- and I’m certainly no AI expert! But despite my tech challenges, I’ve chosen to fully embrace AI. I’ve trained my own custom GPT as a thinking partner to help me brainstorm ideas or refine my content (never create it). Still, when it comes to AI taking over my role, I thought my profession was pretty futureproof. My work is ALL about human connection and requires a multitude of human skills AI can’t replicate. That was until I saw a Wall Street Journal article claiming an AI was the “best career coach” someone ever had. And it got me thinking... If AI can be a ‘coach’ -- what else could it take over? And more importantly, what could this mean for YOUR career path? In this episode, I’m sharing my REAL thoughts on this, including how AI is already impacting other professions, whether robots are coming for your role and what this tells us about the future of work. You’ll walk away with 3 practical tips to take back control and futureproof your career in the age of AI. Because while I’m not a tech expert, what I DO know a lot about is career planning and how to advance your career in the changing world of work! You'll learn: What generative AI means for knowledge workers -- and how to go from overwhelmed to adapting to change, faster than you think Why working hard won’t guarantee success and the ONE shift you must make to keep your skills relevant and futureproof your career The specific skills you need in the age of AI so you stay competitive, no matter how your profession evolves How exploring non-linear paths can open up opportunities you never even imagined -- and help you take ownership of your career in a changing world So hit play NOW -- and let’s dive in!
