    Attracting Opportunities as a Generalist With Olamide Olayemi

    Do you know being a Jack of all trade and master of none could be a stepping stone to building a globally recognised career? Olamide primarily started as one, and today, she is not just a 'Jack of all trade' she is even better than '... a master of one'. She went from primarily reading and writing to Marketing and Communications, to Digital Marketing, then to Project Development; but at the core, she reads and writes. Olamide studied Computer Science, at the same time she is interested in a lot of things like:  reading, writing, listening to music, swimming, painting amongst many other things; which is more personality-driven. Over time, she enjoys being a writer. In this episode, Temi and Olamide had an extensive conversation on how to remain effective and relevant as a generalist. Olamide shared her story of how she over time found herself doing so many things at a time and how she got to monetise and leverage each of her skills as a means of income, depending on what job she received per time.
