How automation frees us for creativity and growth
Am I worried that somebody is going to
automate parts of my job? I hope not, because I should be excited about the things
I can do if they do that. You know what? Most people are in that kind of mindset where they wish
they could do other things, but they’re spending so much time doing something manual: sending
the emails, reminders, sending more emails, going and checking. There’s a lot of things
in ServiceNow that are really request-based, time-based. Things around, anything you can audit.
Anything you can put on a—all of that can just go in there. So being able to eliminate those things
and then use your own ability and work with your leadership team to work on your own development.
It’s like, “Hey, where am I going? What can I do to innovate at our company to do the next cool
thing at the company.” Just doing the same thing is not really—it’s not really very 2023 of us.
So, you kinda have to—kind of keep it moving. So I think it’s just getting people out of that fear.
It’s like, using technology is not—you see it from time to time— but generally not to eliminate
a person. It’s to eliminate that waste to free up people to do some of the other things that
they’re not able to do because they’re so busy.
