In this episode of Soft Skills Engineering, co-hosts Dave Smith and Jamison Dance tackle listener questions related to career challenges. The first question comes from a CTO at a tech startup who is concerned about their resume becoming less valuable and the company's future. They discuss strategies for succession planning and the potential challenges of transitioning to a new role after a long tenure. The second question is from a software engineer who tried leadership but prefers being an individual contributor and now feels lost. The hosts explore options for finding renewed passion in tech, going deeper into a specific area, or even considering a career change like goose farming.
