Lead Your Future

In this episode, I sat down with Emma Siu, the Digital Training Coordinator, here at the Leadership Institute to talk about the top six digital skills employers look for in employees that will put YOUR application at the top of the pile. We talked about programming like HTML, Python, SQL, or Java, Data Analytics, Social Media Marketing & Search Engine Optimization, and User Experience.You can read Emma Siu's blog here: https://www.leadershipinstitute.org/news/?NR=15172

 On today’s show, we’re going to talk about prioritizing internships over college. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Christian Matsumoto.Do you ever get tired of the constant barrage from teachers, family, and the media that college is all you need to succeed? Is a classroom setting not the right fit for you, but the social pressure is driving your life? Academic burnout is a REAL problem. 

Is the new normal souring your social life? Even though you see a flood of work emails and the occasional faces on your Zoom meetings, are you longing for the days of awkward water cooler conversations? Making friends is hard; remote friendships even harder. Today, we’re going to flip our MOODs on remote, workplace relationships and create an online water cooler experience. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Whitney Munro, Vice President of Strategy at the Center for Truth in Science.
