This podcast episode interviews Dorie Clark, an author and consultant, about proactive career management. The discussion covers developing a long-term career vision framed as a testable hypothesis, identifying career mismatches early on through informational interviews and experimentation, and the importance of periodic career reviews (e.g., quarterly) to assess progress and make necessary adjustments. Clark advocates for "lowercase r reinvention," making continuous skill development and adaptation a habit rather than a drastic, infrequent change. Listeners gain actionable advice, such as using AI tools to assess skill transferability and strategically using LinkedIn to reinforce a new career direction through repeated, targeted posts.
