TODAY’S EVOLVING ROLES AND EXPECTATIONS

The need to evolve in today’s skill-based world is a continuous process; as such people must slip into as many roles as possible and take advantage of the hands-on support and open-source platforms that are placing a premium on new responsibilities.

Until recently, my writing has been tied mostly to business ideation, narratives, and commentaries. Now, however, that role has expanded into a more technical field dealing with scripting, sequencing, and content formatting for video and virtual projects.

As the Team lead for developing the Tech-Bridges Associates’ SeeDoo TV Travel Guide; a mini-docu series and a virtual based project, I had the opportunity to latch on to technical writing and build relevant competency in the field.

Three years prior (2017), I made my entry debut in the field of Robotics; working with RoboRAVE International through the country’s directorate, RoboRAVE Nigeria (with support from the U.S Consulate, Lagos) as a Certified Training Facilitator to help schools start-up/expand their competencies in STEAM Education.

With a background in the Arts & Humanities, this was an engaging and insightful shift. The upside, of course, is that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is powering disruptive innovation in technology, and learning about automation and optimization processes has been fundamentally rewarding. What I have learned by taking on these roles is this; the goal must be to build capacity from phase to phase while expanding our resource base.
