Main long term goal is financial freedom. Career goal is to be able to switch to a job I am truly passionate about once I’ve hit few financial goals. So basically a Fire goal lol.

FIRE goal too. I’m just passionate about efficiency gains in both business and life. So supercharging business processes with automation as an independent consultant eventually and also run a career coaching business just because I did discover some interesting stuff along the way by being a personal development nutter. People keep talking AI and ML but we haven’t even gotten to jobs that can be automated with simple excel sheets. And then they end up beating themselves up for not working hard enough etc.

Also, Ascential 1. Did you start thinking about how much to charge for this process automatisation in the future? I'm thinking in the terms of charging based on time spent on it (some time to learn their process, some time to develope solution, some time to actually implement automatisation), but also based on how much time they will save by using this solution (so f.e. 1.5h pre automatisation vs 10min post), but I have problem in judging what time frame to take into account. The best imho would be to try to establish processes lifecycle based on interviewing the client and then in addition charge them 10-20% of what they would save in the long run, but this might be complicated, and met with the fear of high up front costs for them.

As a Data Scientist, I only considered PM as a post-MBA (about to join HSW this fall) career path. But I wonder if I’m limiting my options prematurely?
