  • 1.  great career advice - a podcast to listen to and share

    Posted 02-26-2023 18:29

    Hello members,

    I know you already know about our INFORMS Resoundingly Human podcast. You already know @Ashley Kilgore does a great job interviewing members about their latest research, published articles, and/or current events. Ashley also includes engaging interviews with our Presidents  (@Laura Albert @Radhika Kulkarni  One aspect that I appreciate, in my busy life, is that most episodes are fewer than 20 minutes. 

    While I typically don't highlight one particular episode, I will today. This episode is different in a few ways - 1) it is 50 minutes, 2) it was recorded in-person, 3) it includes two guests, and 4) it includes professional (and some personal) advice. 

    I recommend you listen and then also share it with your students and friends (young and old) who are considering "what they want to be when they grow up." (Spoiler - Carol mentions her 75 year old uncle who still asks himself this question.)

    Once you listen, come back here to Connect and let me know what you think. Or if you have advice to share.

    Thank you for sharing Elena! I wanted to chime in that in addition to the podcast, there is also a video of the interview on the INFORMS YouTube channel!
