Last Saturday morning, a newsletter flitted into your mailbox about the Great Resignation. Here’s a quarter-hour podcast about being Gen Zs and quitting work.

A follow-up podcast, in which LaShone, Emily, David, and Craig all converse with Ben about the insight behind his last two pieces for the Mode/Switch: "How Long Do I Have to Pay My Dues?" and "No One Is Coming to Save Us"

It turns out not obsessing on your flaws can also be—a flaw. Or that’s one conclusion we come to about the mode switch recommended in the newsletter. Re-describing your flaws as capabilities can be a valuable corrective. But org culture needs other correctives, too! So, LaShone, Emily, and Craig untangle some of the issues in how to do the work our flaws present us with in the workplace.

Rising professionals need digital presence. But connecting that virtual presence with in-person interaction can be tricky. This week, the Mode/Switch podcasters—Emily, LaShone, David, & Craig—engage Min Ki Kim’s story about digital overwhelm from the November 12, 2022 issue.

A 14-minute podcast on what your history gives you (besides trauma!) to survive your work and life. Need some resilience today? Press play soon.

Our pod team picks up what Emily’s putting down in the latest issue of the M/S, discussing the ‘theatre of productivity,’ in which your every movement is surveilled as a measure of your workplace usefulness.

Humans are notoriously bad at predicting their own happiness. But is there such a thing as finding your One True Love in a job? Is there a way to find The One when it comes to your occupation?

Emily Bosscher’s guest post this week calls Gen Z and millennial professionals to “push past the awkwardness” to seek the mentoring they need and to learn the weirdness of a workplace’s culture.

In this episode, LaShone Manuel, Emily Bosscher, and Craig Mattson talk about when playing a role makes you fake at work—and when it makes you exactly what your coworkers need.

This episode responds to an argument in the Mode/Switch newsletter issue, discussing the rich and complex stories of four early-to-mid-career professionals: Andrea Munday, Bre Rodgriguez, Eric Freeman, and Julia Belcher.
