One of the questions I get, and I get a lot, especially having worked in Microsoft and IDM, is what are the jobs of the future?

What advice can you give?

And I really take that to heart because I've personally benefited from tech automation and being a part of these companies.

And I feel a deep responsibility.

And I do think that we're generally underestimating the amount of change that's coming.

In other words, as much hype as there is, there's even more change than I think warrants the hype, believe it or not.

And I could be wrong.

But the advice I give is this.

The world will always have problems.

We may not know what those problems are.

So get great at problem solving.

Yeah.

And I think, you know, it's like, okay, well, how do I do that?

Well, I'm one of the disciplines that's been a bit battered and bruised is, you know, the world of design thinking, right?

Design thinking, right?

There's fatigue.

I think it's kind of one of those been there and done that.

But if you strip away kind of the language and you get to the core of what design thinking is all about, it's being world-class, it's solving problems and the right problems that matter to humanity and business and the world.

So the likes of IDEO and McKinsey and Stanford D School over the years have developed capabilities to teach all sorts of people design thinking.

And so to me, I think we may not see and have clarity of what those problems are, but the world will have problems.
