What do we know about automation? It's efficient. It helps in accomplishing goals faster and with fewer resources. And we know for sure that deep inside, we are all a bit afraid that automation of the workflow will take away our jobs and kill ambitions of career growth. 

We might be against it. We might support the implementation of automation in the work processes. Still, we all agree, automation is real, and whether we want it or not, it will become the driving force of the businesses in the next decade. 

Today I have a guest. He is a man of many roles, but all are related to one ubiquitous field: automation. Danilo McGarry will be our guide to the world of automation, will share some exciting stories on automation fails and will share his perspective on why often automation fails. 

DISCLAIMER: It's a long one! Enjoy 1 hour of our great conversation. We wanted to make sure we cover the topic thoroughly and share some insights about the future of automation.

1. Epic automation failures: why expressing concerns when you can go on strike ;)

3. Boomers vs. Millennials, who will win when automation comes

4. Who makes decisions (SPOILER: decision-makers :P ) 

5. We will answer the question of the decade: Will I lose my job? ( your girl will live in harmony with any automated machines, they do not have her charm, but how about other less fortunate IT folks?)
