Listen "Is it Time to Repurpose Your Career?"
Episode Synopsis
Marc Miller
Marc Miller’s career journey included 22 years at IBM, several thriving tech startups, a stint as a high school math teacher, a gig raising funds and a near fatal bicycle accident that changed his perspective forever.
Thirty years of wandering the proverbial career desert, often repeating the same mistakes over and over taught him his most crucial lesson: Most people don’t really know what makes them happy at their core, what fulfills them.
Marc’s latest endeavor “Career Pivot” uses his extensive training experience to help others—especially Baby Boomers—find careers that they could grow into for the decades that lie ahead.
Some of what we talked about:
Corporate people make themselves into the image of their employers
Introverts consume massive amounts of energy to be inauthentic public selves
Stealth competitors claim they don’t want anything, then kick butt when they don’t get what they want
Knowing Your Value: Women, Money, and Getting What You’re Worth
Who am I really?
Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain
50% of the country are introverts
Restorative Niches
Burn out occurs when you over use a skill that is not tied to an innate talent
Larry Byrd- not a great athlete but…
