This is a fascinating deep dive into the construct that has been created around the Professions (including, but not limited to, Law, Tax and Audit, Accounting, Architecture, Management Consulting, Education and Healthcare), and how we have traditionally both accessed and gained value from these disciplines.  

The Internet and the continuous spread of publicly available knowledge throws a direct challenge to the perceived value of such professions and the advance of automation poses further threat as software will inevitably create efficiencies that undermine the business case for current pricing models. 

​Richard and Daniel Susskind, through in-depth analysis, shine a spotlight on the vulnerabilities of the professions, presenting a strong case for why and how they will need to pivot and adapt so as to survive in the future of work.​
