Future Career Concerns
So, I’ve been working in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform ecosystem for around eight years now, watching it evolve along the way.
I’m at a senior level and work across Dynamics 365, Power Apps, Power Automate and SharePoint, supporting clients across various industries. I also have experience with plugins and JavaScript, and I’ve recently been learning more about Code Apps expand my technical skill set.
I genuinely enjoy what I do, but increasingly, I find myself wondering what the future holds for people in our industry as AI continues to advance.
I can’t help but think about how much of our work could eventually be automated and what that might mean for our roles in the long run.
For those of you in a similar position, how are you adapting and staying ahead of the curve?
Are you actively learning AI, exploring Copilot Studio and building agents? Would it make sense to look at moving into an AI-focused team that’s developing Copilot Studio solutions for clients?
More broadly, what do you think the future looks like for IT consultancy, particularly within the Microsoft stack?
How many of you preparing for what’s next, and what skills do you think will be most valuable over the next five to ten years?
