The 5 Biggest Tradeoffs in Automation

Episode notes

The massive global talent shortage is driving businesses to automate in even more areas of their operations. Surveys show that more than 60% of the companies already started their automation journey. There are always some tradeoffs, of course, when doing any enterprise-wide initiative. It would be cool if you could deploy new automated processes overnight. If you could just start your fully autonomous processes. But that is not possible. At least not quickly. So companies are making various tradeoffs on their way to their automated future. Here are the 5 biggest tradeoffs I have seen in intelligent automation projects. 1) Top-down vs Bottom Up 2) Hard vs Soft Benefits 3) Speed vs Perfection 4) Pilot vs Scale 5) Short Term vs Long Term
