The Threat Of Automation

In today's episode: As workers fight for more expensive packages, automation starts to look more and more appealing for management. The promise is that we'll upskill workers when automation takes their jobs--but this doesn't happen. Thousands of skilled manufacturing jobs are still open because people don't have the aptitude or appetite for them. A portion of the workforce isn't looking for more responsibility; they want to do their job and go home. When looking at worker potential, ask: can they do more? Do they want more? Will they want to do more here?
