Critics Review
“Jim taught me early in my career the importance of constant learning and how to tackle new challenges fearlessly. Hard to Replace is a guidebook on how to navigate the uncertainty of rapid technological change and how to flourish in it.”

“Jim Hutcherson recalls his career-long experiences to provide a roadmap for dealing with personal and technology change. He shows us the human constants that persist through all this change. Be prepared to take notes when you read this book!”
— Brian W. Murphy

“Jim is a quintessential business leader that can process business issues on multiple levels. Jim’s ability to bring into our focus with clarity and honesty the ‘waves’ not the water. Moving the reader with confidence to the ‘business paying field,’ rather than on the sidelines. Hard to Replace allows the reader to hear a first person account of the rate and pace of technology. Just as Jim speaks to the ability to change and adapt to change—key to his success is his ability to not only connect the dots; Jim sees dots others do not see. I would encourage the reader to meditate on the message, turn the book into an action plan, and ride the ‘waves’ before they are left behind.”

In an atmosphere of anxiety, Jim Hutcherson’s Hard to Replace documents the uniquely human skills that will continue to be valuable in this tech driven economy. Jim has decades of experience working with employers and education providers so this book has the real world knowledge that so many others lack. You will learn so much from this book.”
