In this episode, we explore the concept that the value of our skills is determined by the context in which they are applied. The author argues that skills, in and of themselves, have no intrinsic value; instead, their worth depends on the industry or market where they are utilized. Drawing from personal experiences in marketing, the author highlights the high value placed on his skills in the biotechnology sector compared to other industries. We discuss various professions to illustrate how context can influence salaries and professional success. Additionally, the episode features a social experiment that shows how perceptions of value can vary based on context, demonstrating how the same skill can yield significantly different incomes in different environments. Join us as we delve into the interplay between skills and context in shaping career trajectories.
