F1 Principal Toto Wolff on why skills and grit are the true currency at work

Before Toto Wolff was known as a Formula 1 legend, the Austrian businessman spent years steering through different jobs and passions – banking, manufacturing, racing, and venture capital, until he finally landed his current role as Team Principal & CEO of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team. Toto talks with Ryan about why the transition to finance made him miserable at first, how to get new skills, and why young professionals shouldn’t try to chase passion right away. Then, author and communication coach Jodi Glickman, shares strategies for identifying your own skills, and deciding which of them are transferrable to a new job or industry.
