Last year, I saw Seth Godin speak and it was very inspiring. He is the author of many best-selling books, more recently, Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? He’s speaking again at an event in Orange County, March 2nd, 2011. If you haven’t got tickets yet, I’d say you better get them soon.
I just watched a recent video of him speaking about the end of the Industrial Revolution. If you have five minutes, check it out. It puts your career into perspective and makes you question what you do, which I think is a good thing.
A few of the key points he made were:
- The Industrial Age has ended.
- We built the last 100 years around the idea of the assembly line, but now computers do our jobs.
- There is now a demand for workers who don’t just do what they’re told.
- If you are creative, you are in demand.
- If you’ve brainwashed yourself to think that all you can do is what you’re told, then you should be prepared to be treated poorly.
So what are you doing to stay current?
