  • Episode 001: We're Automating the Wrong Work

    We've become remarkably good at making work faster.

    But what if some of that work never needed to exist in the first place?

    In the first episode of The Occasional Muse, Colan McGeehan explores why organizations become complicated, why many of those processes once made sense, and how technology gives us an opportunity to rethink them.

    From unnecessary meetings to processes we've stopped questioning, it's a look at what happens when we focus less on doing everything faster and more on deciding what actually deserves our time.

    Because the goal shouldn't be to automate human judgment. It should be to make more room for it.

    A little less noise. Something worth thinking about.
