What type of new opportunities will be born as the result of this epidemic?
I hope that lawyers, politicians, gender study academics and clerics of all faith become obsolete. That would be a major step forward for mankind. But joking apart: why do you think jobs become irrelevant as a result of covid19? Maybe with all the shops closed for weeks, people.learnt that leisure shopping of apparel serves no purpose and un-learnt this foolish behaviour.
I guess that WHO will be obsolete completely!!
for sure a reconversion is expected for the sector, I guess corporative events like conventions will dramatically change, and their planners probably move to offer the catering food to our homes attached to a Zoom link…
I believe that to a greater or lesser extent all industries are going to have to relaunch and / or transform. In all of them, the human component is still decisive, and its value and participation have been clearly questioned.
Those tasks where there is no real added value for the participation of a professional, and this task can be carried out by an autonomous process (which can also be controlled, improved and does not take vacations), sooner rather than later, will change to 100%.
This will deal with a reorganization of the teams, and those tasks where creativity, opinion, gaze or human judgment generate a differential, will have more and more place.
In my opinion, EDUCATION will clearly be affected, given that the need to reinvent it on the traditional level has been demonstrated.
HEALTH may be extended via teleconferences and digital media.
Tourism should think of new “values ??or Drivers” on which to position its offer. Perhaps it is not just the destination, the magnet of tourists, but the microecosystems that can be created to “secure” the experience.
Content on demand. So many hours at home, it has made us not only more consumers, but more selective and critical about what we see, from where and how we see it.
The popularization of the platforms, which has been growing and was enhanced, will only increase the variety and depth of the topics with which the series are designed.
THE general political management. I think that the “presentiality” has clearly been offside, and whoever wants to generate from a pc, from home or from anywhere, can do it. It will not be necessary to fill public buildings again just to sustain a bureaucracy that was clearly undermined in 10 days with the endless number of new procedures that can be carried out digitally (payment of fees, extensions, credits, tax filings, etc.)
Unfortunately da management haven’t learnt diddly, you still see jobs which could and should be work from home, particularly in IT being in the office as soon as vivid is over. All those office buildings with air xonditioning, lights on all day, heating etc. All those car journeys, all because managers measure the size of their dicks in terms of the number of underlings traipsing in every morning.
Any field can become obsolete as soon as the first principles guiding or leading it are changed. As an example,The banking sector as we know it today, will change by 2025 due to the fact banking become experience and no something you do somewhere but everywhere. AI and Machine learning will increase this change in most sectors. The humans will have to readjust themselves to stay relevant.
Nothing will become obsolete rather it will evolve into a balance where some unnecessary behaviors will tone down into less frequency and some elements of behavior will change. What will actually become obsolete will be any industry/sector/function/outlet that does not enbrace this change and restricts itself to try to force the old normal as normal…after all we ghave seen change do away with these types always through history.
