Customer Reviews
Essential to my job
As a community college president, I am keenly interested in the future of work and the role community colleges play in preparing the workforce. This podcast is an essential tool for me in leading my college to meet workforce needs of today and tommorow.
Well produced corporate speak
I listened to the first 30 minutes of 4 or 5 episodes. They had IBM/HR, Cleveland clinic, Deloitte, workforce transitions and one other. Polite, well spoken corporate blather. It's the problem you get when you get the top person to speak; they can't say much of anything.
Older marcomm people love the well packaged CEO, but podcasting is different. Deloitte's leader got great questions on remote work, specialists vs generalists, etc. In all cases, his answer was some version of "it depends on the need and situation"; that was about all. Absolutely true, but screamingly obvious. Actually every episode was high level corporate positions; same as you'd get from chatgpt if you asked for half a dozen paragraphs on something.
I realize my review is out of sync with others. Either my tastes are different or people under these very powerful guests are concouraged to contribute.
Reconsider who u interview
Pwc is a bad place to work with poor culture and coaching reconsider the folks u bring on
