As I work on the millionth spreadsheet I’m thinking: Are there any business skills you think are going to be outdated 5 years from now? Any you think will be around for a long time? What comes after spreadsheets?

Can definitely see working on spreadsheets becoming outdated, pretty soon it’ll be a few sentences in a chatgpt and you're done. I think problem solving will suffer a lot in the next few years. We will rely heavily on an optimized AI formula to figure it out all the time.

I have these same feelings all the time. This is why I try to stay up to date on professional development. It’s hard, especially with trying to manage the workload etc.

I’m not sure if excel will fully become obsolete. I think the biggest one to worry about is writing. Design seems safe as well. Just my preliminary thoughts.
