In chapter 3, Drucker states that “new technology will employ more people and, above all, more people who are highly skilled and highly trained (page 21, “Automation and the Worker”)”

This week, write a one to two page paper about a trend in business as it pertains to automation.

Find an article that discusses a business situation in which a company has switched to some form of automation. Start your paper out by providing a paragraph in which you explain the content of the article. Next, explain why the decision was made to automate. Does this support or contradict Drucker’s statement? Discuss if this decision had a positive and/or negative effect – or both. In your opinion, was this the right decision? Was this an ethical decision? Explain your answer.
