Bossed Up

How Gen X Navigates Career Change


Listen Later

Gen Xers have a wealth of experience and talent to offer the workforce, and yet Millennials and Baby Boomers tend to receive the majority of the media focus and career advice available today. Even Bossed Up doesn’t have as much information for this generation as it could.

In doing my part to correct this oversight, I speak with Vince Chan, host of the Chief Change Officer podcast. A Gen Xer herself, Vince supports Gen X professionals as they traverse critical career crossroads. In this episode, Vince shares how the shared traits of this group result in a resilient generation with so much to offer—often more than even they realize.

Discover how Gen X navigates career transformation, including:

  • How Gen X’s deep respect for institutions can help them and hold them back;
  • The lifetime of technological shifts Gen Xers have navigated
  • Why Gen X needs to set aside a fear of judgment and love themselves more.
