We're sort of at this place where we're gonna ride out the work we've done.
It's not coming for us.
It's coming for all of us.
Work is not ending.
That's the good news.
But the hard truth is work is gonna change for everyone.
in some fundamental ways.
And I think the most important thing that people who are mid into their career or even later in their career can just sort of realize, if not embrace, is you're gonna have to reinvent yourself a bit.
Old math isn't gonna work for the new equations coming to work.
You're gonna have to start over a bit, redefine yourself, learn again, push yourself, get uncomfortable.
It's gonna be like you're reentering the labor market.
Now, the simplest way to do that is forget about your job title.
I have a career, Scott just gave me by my title.
It got made up a year ago by our CEO.
Like my career makes absolutely no sense by job title.
I was a war correspondent, speechwriter to President Obama, did growth at startups, was doing economic impact at companies.
And then with the California governor, now I'm at LinkedIn and a made up job title.
The old way of work really was hard for me sometimes.
I'd go in interviews, they'd say, oh, that's interesting, but where do you fit?
What slot are you in this org chart?
