Hello, world.

Welcome to Discover Your Talent, Do What You Love, Number 360.

I'm creator and host, Don Hutchison.

Every day, I interview someone around the world who has discovered

his talents to do work he loves to create a life of success, satisfaction, and freedom.

Once a week, I interview a well-known expert from the fields of personal and business development

who share experiences, tools, and insights to help our listeners along their journeys.

Today, I'm delighted to bring you our featured expert, Bob Lattel. Welcome, Bob. Hey, Don. Great to be back.

through practicing the skill sets and action steps of net weaving, but by showcasing many

others in a variety of fields and industries who've been doing net weaving just without a word

for it. So, Bob, I'm really excited to be delving into this topic. Why should people

be so interested in expanding their abilities to network slash net weave in today's economy?

Take the stage and set the table for us. Well, Don, I would encourage all your listeners to do a little research on their own and to take a look at what is

happening in the world of technology and how over the next 5, 10, 15, 20 years, many, and we're

talking millions of jobs are going to be eliminated, either by

robotics, by artificial intelligence, by what are called software bots.

And so what's so significant about that is what is going to become even more critical for people

to spend more time working on is their soft skills.

And so knit weaving tends not only to fall into the category of soft skills because it involves communication, it involves

coordinating people, it involves collaboration, and it requires creativity and innovation.
