Abstract
Our guest this week is Jacques Roy, Executive IT Specialist for Watson Data and AI at IBM. Jacques has extensive experience within IBM's technical engagement groups, on both sales and development teams. He talks us through the need to continue to evolve with the industry, as failing to do so can often lead you to become obsolete and less competitive within the job market. He argues that the effort required to get up to speed is more often less demanding than what it may seem, and he has created a youtube channel dedicated to helping others become apart of the conversation.
