EP 440: Adopting the Perennial Mindset for Work & Beyond with Mauro Guillen

Published: Aug. 17, 2023, 8 a.m.

Play, learn, work, retire\u2014those are the four stages of what Mauro Guill\xe9n calls\xa0the sequential mode of life. In his new book,\xa0The Perennials: The Megatrends Creating a Postgenerational Society, he proposes a new story for moving through life. It's a story that actually reflects the facts on the ground\u2014rather than our grandparents' idea of what life was supposed to look like.\xa0

In this episode, I talk with Guill\xe9n about his research and his vision for how life, learning, and work could be different.\xa0
