Factory automation proved the power of aligning people, processes, and tech. Those three scaled global manufacturing. Businesses adopted it widely—mapping workflows, training teams, and deploying technology everywhere.
After process automation, globalization supercharged operations. It gave us 24/7 productivity, seamless digital collaboration, and remote work. That laid the foundation for AI to be integrated.
Now, AI flips the entire model. Instead of supporting PEOPLE, AI becomes the process and the tech itself!
What's left for us? That would be Creativity. Judgment. Relationships. Strategy. Empathy. Innovation.
This isn't about replacing people; it's about freeing them to do what humans do best
The companies that recognize and embrace this shift will win the future.
