Show notes

We recently sat down with Adam Sheather, who shared incredible insights derived from his journey, from pioneering BIM consulting to a Solution Architect at Autodesk,. Adam’s philosophy on automation is straightforward: it’s about reducing low-value tasks through a computerised process, not necessarily magic or complex code. A common mistake is focusing on automating cool systems rather than tackling the repetitive, boring, but high-impact tasks that truly save time. When building computational workflows, the key is understanding the existing software capabilities to avoid unnecessarily rewriting functions, as complexities usually stem from people and inconsistent business processes, not just the technology.
