Want to continue learning from the world’s experts on time management, networking, career development, better sleep, overcoming burnout, and so much more?→ Click here for your customized podcast playlistMauro Guillén is a Professor of Management and Vice Dean for the MBA for Executives Program at Wharton School, an expert in global market trends and a sought-after speaker and consultant. And what caught my attention is this quote from his website which pretty much describes not only the current situation of the entertainment industry but the world at large:"The World you know is about to end — will you be prepared for what comes next?"This is not fear mongering but an invitation to reinvent how you plan your life and your career. Our conversation took us deep into the reasons why the world is changing so fast and why the sequential model of life we've been trained to live (for over 120 years now) is not only obsolete but a danger to society as well. Mauro and I talk about the important shifts that we need to take which he lays out in his book, THE PERENNIALS: The Megatrends Creating a Post Generational Society.My previous conversation with Christina Wallace talks about future proofing on an individual level, and this conversation with Mauro broadens out to the societal level. I cannot emphasize enough how timely these conversations are in helping you diversify your life and identify who you are beyond your resume.Want to Hear More Episodes Like This One?» Click here to subscribe and never miss another episode Here's What You'll Learn:Discover what should be the only possible response to changeWho are the perennials and what does it mean for youWhat is the old sequential model and what are the many ways that this model is risky to societyWhy the current school system is no longer working for usWhat are the skills of the future and why we need to teach these in school nowWhy learning is the superpower of the future Why we should encourage students to think about multiple educations and careersHow to diversify if you are already specialized The one important skill to relate with technologyThe two ways to address a problem and which one is betterWhy we need to rethink our idea of retirementUseful Resources Mentioned:The Perennials: The Megatrends Creating a Postgenerational SocietyEp231: Becoming a Master of Change in All Aspects of Your Life | with Brad StulbergEp230: Why You Feel Stuck and the Key to Unlocking Your Full Potential | with Eduardo BriceñoEp170: How to Avoid Burnout and Live a More ‘Effortless’ Life | with Greg McKeownMindset: The New Psyc
