Robin Borough: The Illusion of Career Stability

Published: April 14, 2020, 9 p.m.

In more than 30 years acting as a corporate counselor and advisor to technology professionals, executives, CEOs, CFOs and COOs, Robin Borough has developed a world-class reputation as a career strategist, helping individuals identify and build on their strengths while developing and nurturing a leadership mentality. 

Part of that mentality includes reinvention. Each of us have a unique opportunity that previous generations didn’t - the freedom to reinvent yourself (professionally) several times over the course of a single career. 

It starts with having a learning mindset. And a willingness to take risks. 

Reinvention isn’t easy, despite the technological advancements of the past 50 years. At it’s core its still a leap of faith. Though if the recent covid-19 pandemic has illuminated anything, it’s the illusion of career stability in a globally-integrated economy. Though also the importance of supplementing your knowledge with adaptable skill-sets that stress the importance of human-centric competencies such as empathy, leading through persuasion, and emotional intelligence. 

Join Robin & I as we discuss the importance of embracing lifelong learning and why it’s the secret to success in our knowledge-based economy.
