Description

Technology moves quickly, and is growing at an exponential rate. As entrepreneurs, or solopreneurs, how do we keep up? Startups and tech companies alike have been breaking the barriers we know with the tech industry. Tech companies aren’t just exclusive to “techies” anymore. Shocking, isn’t it? It’s become all inclusive, extending to the right brainers as well, or as Scott Hartley calls them, the “Fuzzies.” This week we discuss automation, self driving cars, and all other aspects of technology. Don’t worry though, it’s here to help us! Scott Hartley joins us this week to discuss his book “The Fuzzy and the Techie,” (a Financial Times business book of the month!) as well as the world of automation. Scott is a venture capitalist, and has worked at companies such as Facebook and Google! STRUCTURING WARRIOR “Technology is about taking the new tools, and applying them to the old problems, meaningfully.”-Scott Hartley Highlights - As right-brainers, we have to think more left brained in order to have successful businesses. The world needs both the Fuzzy, and the Techie. If you have multiple passions, nurture all of them. Chaos orients itself. You don’t have to be one or the other; creative or technical. You can be both. Within 60% of jobs, 30% of our tasks can be “assisted” with via tech. Be optimistic -- technology assists us! Technology isn’t perfect -- and won’t be perfect. As Creative Warriors, we need to sell both the humanity and technology. It is the sweet spot for success. Do not fear technology!
