“I think the normal career advice we get is, if you have a lot of passions, you’ve got to choose just one,” says author, speaker, and teacher Sarabeth Berk. “Otherwise, how are you going to be successful if you’re trying to do 10 things at once?” Berk needed to answer that question. Feeling pigeonholed in her career, she set off on a series of research interviews with people who have multiple expertise and are successful. She dubs it "The Hybrid Career" which she outlines in her new book "More Than My Title: The Power of Hybrid Professionals in a Workforce of Experts and Generalists." Listen in to her conversation with CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour to learn how she built an online course to help others find their momentum so they can look beyond their title to uncover the diversity of work they’re truly passionate about.
