In this episode, we delve into fascinating topics that are reshaping the modern workplace and challenging traditional career advice.
First, we explore the age-old question: Is "follow your passion" good advice? We analyze the merits and limitations of this popular mantra, considering its applicability in today's complex and rapidly changing world. We discuss alternative approaches to career fulfillment and offer practical insights for individuals seeking to navigate their professional paths effectively.
Next, we dive into the rise of skill-based hiring and downcredentialing. We examine how employers are shifting their focus from degrees and credentials to specific skill sets, furthering our degree free cause. We discuss multiple scenarios that are happening right now and how you can take advantage of it.
