Off to a great start -- I'm looking forward to the next dispatch. A lawyer friend recently said "you wouldn't believe how many mid-career people are desparate to do something new but feel locked into the rut caised by professional specialization and family/lifestyle choices." It feels like this problem fits into the gig economy conversation somehow, but I'm not sure how to express the connection. Maybe it's something you'll explore.

Great to read your most recent thoughts, Richard. I'd riff that workers ever more need help learning new knowledge and skills -- starting how to unlearn rote educational methods that don't develop higher order problem solving, whatever one's profession. A good coach poses questions that help people understand that they themselves own responsibility for both calling the on court plays (at times) and executing the shots (at other times) -- and not to rely on others -- especially employers -- to define all. Looking forward to hearing more of your interconnections.

Agreed with all that! I'm particularly enjoying David Epstein's Range in that particular regard.
