How Pursuing Multiple Interests Makes You More Employable - Got Skills

The Skill: Blending your various interests into one niche perspective.  This week, we’re diving into Season 1 Episode 2 of Let’s Talk About Skills Baby. In this episode host, Kelly Ryan Bailey speaks with Tony Tsai, Director of Leadership Development at University of Utah’s School of Medicine about the changes to higher education that he feels would most benefit students. Tony believes that while every student chooses a degree to pursue, they are still responsible for their own skillset. It is not enough to just take the classes offered in your program, you really have to take command of your own education, pursue things that interest you, and get a well-rounded exposure to different areas of study.  Key Takeaway: Higher Education no longer draws a straight line to employment, rather it is a training ground for life’s more durable skills – like how to think critically, manage time, and navigate competing perspectives and deadlines.   Learn more at skillsbaby.com/gotskills   Got Skills is produced by Growth Network Podcasts
