    Exploring the Move From the University to the Multiversity through Education Data

    This week’s episode features not one, but two guests! Kelly sits down with Phil Komarny, the Chief Innovation Officer at Maryville University, and Dr. Mark Lombardi, the President of Maryville University, and co-author of the book Pivot – A Vision for the new University. They talk about the technological approach they are using to center students in their own educational journeys, so learners can discover the pedagogy that best works for them, and collectively we can create better access to higher education at an affordable price and in a flexible way.   Takeaways:  1. The reality is that everyone can be successful & achieve & learn. You just have to find the right key to unlock that lock.   2. Empowering students means you're not the sage on the stage anymore--you're the guide on the side.   3. Revolution in higher ed has to be based on the student, on student data, and on the democratization of knowledge.  Follow Phil, Mark, and Maryville University on LinkedIn and Twitter.   Learn more at https://www.maryville.edu/  Skillsbaby.com   This is a Growth Network Podcasts Production

    Centering Humans in HR with a People’s Platform

    Join Kelly as she sits down with Kelley Steven-Waiss to discuss what skills have fueled her career. Kelley is the Founder, Executive Chairman, and Chief Product Officer of Hitch Works, a skills intelligence and talent mobility platform. She talks about why she is so passionate about revolutionizing HR practices, what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur, and why she wants to increase access to education and skill-building opportunities.   Kelley believes in disrupting HR to allow for jungle gym careers.   Takeaways:  One of the most interesting things about humans is that we are amalgamations of our life experiences and our professional experiences.  Leverage your network, do your homework, and then be fearless.    I would argue that the more adversity you have, the better you can overcome objections or difficulties in the future.   Follow Kelley on LinkedIn and Twitter and learn more at hitch.works  Skillsbaby.com   This is a Growth Network Podcasts Production

    The Benefits of Being Skilled Through Alternative Routes

    This week, Kelly speaks with Bridgette Gray. Bridgette is the Chief Customer Officer at Opportunity At Work, a founding member of Chief DC, and Leap ambassador. They discuss why STARS (people who are Skilled Through Alternative Routes) are such a valuable untapped resource in today’s workforce, Bridgette’s ultimate career goal, and what it was like being on a Zoom call with Michelle Obama.  Takeaways:  Talent is always equal, opportunity is not. Diversifying talent at work will also help us work on some deep systemic issues in our country.  Don’t ever think that there is a place where you can’t continue to grow, learn, and beef up your knowledge, because knowledge is not written in a textbook. It’s the things you have to watch, listen to, and learn about by asking questions.  Follow her on LinkedIn and Twitter @BridgetteFGray  Learn more at opportunityatwork.org Skillsbaby.com This is a Growth Network Podcasts Production

    Overcoming bias as a Military Spouse, and Learning How to Network Remotely

    With us today is Cleo Haynal. Cleo is the director of lifecycle marketing at Alation. She is also a military spouse who has been benefitting from remote work opportunities long before the pandemic normalized it, and has amazing advice for getting the most out of remote workspaces with her networking tricks and tips.   Big Takeaways:  Two major challenges to employees are that we put a premium on geography that isn't necessarily there, and we judge people's loyalty on external criteria that don’t necessarily correlate to being a high-performing employee.  “Whenever I attend a company-wide meeting, I try to write down the name of a person I have not connected with before, and just reach out to them.” Consider negotiating your job description to focus on things that interest you.   Can the Hybrid Workplace Help Military Spouses Careers?  Follow Cleo on LinkedIn and learn more at alation.com  Skillsbaby.com This is a Growth Network Podcasts Production

    Do You Really Need Another Degree?

    This week, we have a special bonus episode for you. Kelly recently had the honor of teaming up with Harvard university's career advisor and best-selling author of The Unspoken Rules; Secrets to Starting Your Career off Right Gorick Ng, Glassdoor’s Learning and Development Senior Manager, Karla Talley, and Coursera’s product designer, Kim Alban for a Fishbowl live event titled Do I Really Need Another Degree?  During the live session, we discussed, whether it's worth the money to take advantage of upskilling opportunities and answered questions from an audience of over 1000 participants, so we are excited to share that recorded session with you here.  Big Takeaways:  We often have a lot of skills that we've learned through informal education and informal work experience. It doesn't matter if it comes from life experience, bring it into work, talk about it, and use that to your advantage at work as well. Find people who have pursued a certain career path that you'd like to pursue. Contact them and see if that graduate degree actually got them closer to where they are, or if they feel like they could have gotten there without that detour. You just need to be in different rooms to help you further. So, it really important to look at growth and development in all facets, to be able to get you where you want to be.  Skillsbaby.com This is a Growth Network Podcasts Production
