  • DD 104 How Gen Z Can Bridge the Skills Gap and Succeed
    Jul 10 2018

    As a millennial, I am lucky that some portion of my life I grew up without the impact of social media, rampant consumerism, and the social isolation that is happening now to future generations, impacting Gen Z.

    In this episode, I talk about the issues and mindsets to adopt to help Gen Z achieve their goals. Of course, there is massive potential and future for everyone no matter what generation you're in, but understanding why you feel as you do and you do the things you do will greatly help.

    Apr 15 2018

    As you really start analyzing what you'd like to do for your career strategy, it's definitely worth a think to determine the pros and cons of joining either a startup or a large company, and how that may impact your ability to obtain short-term cash (wages) or long term renumeration (business ownership in the form of equity).
