If there’s one thing that most of us can agree on, it’s the fact that the modern world, and the modern business world, in particular, has been almost entirely dominated by technology. However, one of the biggest mistakes that a lot of people make when they look at the world of work is that they assume that the innovation stopped with the rise of the internet The truth is that how we think about and interact with our careers is constantly in a state of flux and thanks to technology those changes are coming thicker and faster than ever before. With that in mind, here are some industries that technology is still impacting in some seriously significant ways.

Medicine

If there’s one industry that you can guarantee to be right at the cutting edge of any recent technological advancements, it’s going to be medicine. The ways in which medical professionals are incorporating technology into everything from diagnosis to treatments is truly astounding. From new DNA testing methods to equipment like the GE Lunar, there are more ways to treat patients and understand illness now than ever before. And let’s face it, could there ever be a better place for technology to be used than in the act of saving lives?    

Marketing

Marketing has always been one of those things that is quick to embrace new technology, even if practitioners don’t know exactly how best to utilise it for a while. The internet has been around now for more than two decades, and yet marketing experts are still finding ways to use it to their advantage. This has been made even more complicated by the rise of social media. After all, the way that average people interact with their online technology now is completely different to even a decade ago. From understanding Google’s algorithms to the use of dedicated tech to monitor and interact with customers, digital marketing has been undergoing something of a revolution over the last several years.

Education

Teaching is one of those jobs that has basically looked the same for the last century and change. However, over the last decade, there has been a quiet revolution going on. The truth is that kids are now able to find pretty much any information that they need right at their fingertips. Think about how often you were told by a teacher that you wouldn’t always have a calculator on you, and now most of us constantly carry in our pockets a computer more powerful than the one that put a man on the moon! The key for teachers now is to be able to teach young people how to find and understand new information, rather than just teaching them straight out of a textbook.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that things like a classic brick and mortar business aren’t going to be a viable option in the modern era. No matter how important technology becomes to us, the desire for hands-on work is always going to be there. The best thing that you can do is to try and combine the two and develop as many skills for yourself as possible.
