According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average person now holds ten different jobs before the age of 40. With the rise of AI and rapid technological change, this number is likely to increase in the future. The question is how can you future proof yourself in your chosen field while avoiding self-sabotaging behavior that can derail your career or get you laid off? Our guest is Carter Cast. Carter has reinvented himself several times, starting out as marketing manager at PepsiCo, moving on to become CEO of Walmart.com, and later as a venture capitalist and professor. In his work life, he has been forced to confront some hard truths which he documented in his book, The Right and Wrong Stuff: How Careers Are Made and Unmade. Carter's formula for avoiding career disaster involves knowing yourself and your weaknesses, becoming more agile, and learning to control risky behaviors. As our work lives inevitably become less certain and more intellectually demanding, Carter's insights are essential for anyone who has long-term career or business goals.
