Hidden in Plain Sight: The Power of Hybrid Professionals
Manage episode 312756766 series 3244958
This episode’s guest is Sarabeth Berk, PhD. Sarabeth has pioneered a new concept called career hybridity, and recently published the book More Than My Title: The power of hybrid professionals in a workforce of experts and generalists. Through research and a deep understanding of the modern economy, Sarabeth deconstructs and rebuilds our notions of what careers can be, while providing a path forward for those whose value transcends traditional roles.
Candidly, this is a deeply personal concept for me, as I’ve never really felt like I truly “fit in” with any organization or job. I’m always drawn to do more than my role requires, I find myself getting bored easily, and I am always seeking new challenges. I often have difficulty defining myself through traditional titles and roles. All this time, I’ve been a hybrid professional, and Sarabeth’s work has taught me that not only is that a great thing, but that I need to own that identity in order to find true fulfillment in my career.
