What's the future of jobs in an AI-dominated world? We're diving headfirst into that question, inspired by none other than Elon Musk's dire warnings about AI rendering human labor redundant. As we grapple with the thought of a world with virtual intelligence, we delve into what it could mean for society if the majority of jobs became obsolete, and how that might redefine not just our economies, but us as individuals.
Picking up the thread on AI, we shift our focus to its application in the gaming universe, specifically Bethesda's Starfield game. We're exploring the dynamic interplay of humans and AI, challenging the notion that AI will replace us. Instead, we propose a future where AI is a tool that amplifies human potential, helping us achieve more than we ever thought possible.
Finally, we're offering some candid insights into the consulting field - a career path that's as challenging as it is rewarding. If you're a young go-getter contemplating a move into tech consulting, we've got some hard-earned advice for you. We're also drawing a comparison between financial advisors and consultants, exploring the implications of a mostly youthful consulting workforce. To wrap it up, we're talking corporate strategy, unionization, and the importance of finding work that fuels your passion. Prepare for a wild ride through this thought-provoking conversation.

Ever found yourself chuckling over the quirks of corporate life or scratching your head at the paradox of success? That's precisely where Bruce and I landed in our latest Corporate Strategy Vibes Check. As we pour out our trials and triumphs, from gearing up for major work events to contemplating the relentless demand success places on our shoulders, we also flip some classic sayings on their heads. Can these old adages really survive the heat of the modern-day corporate kitchen?
It's not all boardrooms and business attire; our journey through the tech scene has us dishing on the striking contrasts between the streets of San Francisco and the sunlit buzz of Mountain View. We take you behind the scenes of the RSA conference to marvel at Samsung's security innovations and kick around with AI-powered soccer stats that showcase the pace of app development today. And while Sterling brings sunny tales from Mountain View, we also navigate the darker side of tech hubs, pondering policy impacts on urban landscapes.
There's a heartbeat to this podcast, one that thrums with the support and camaraderie you all bring to the table. We laugh off the odd hiccup, like our merch link shenanigans, and send a beacon out for a social media wizard. Whether you're tuning in for your dose of corporate strategy insights or the unvarnished truth of our experiences, know that your listens, shares, and recommendations are the secret sauce to our host-funded endeavor. So, buckle in for more riveting discussions, and let's unwrap the next episode's gift together.

This episode is all about finding balance in the new year, laughing through life's unpredictable moments, and embracing the freedom that comes with a much-needed break.
In the realm of future strategies, we discuss maximizing efficiency with AI and creative ventures like "Puppet Pods."

Corporate Strategy - 95. Are Certifications Worth It?
play

10/23/23 • 33 min

Feeling under the weather? Don't worry, so is our co-host, Clark! This episode packs a punch, blending together the unlikely mix of illness, horror movies, and workplace certifications. We're sorry for the delay in delivery, but when one host is 90% virus, things can get a little chaotic. Now, Clark might be battling a cold, but it doesn't stop him from sharing his thoughts on the latest AI developments, our mutual love for hair-raising horror flicks, and the controversial concept of a limb-chopping hero story.
Ever wondered if certifications are your golden ticket to success in the corporate world? Squid Boy and Individual Contributor have! So, we decided it was high time we addressed this ongoing debate. While Clark and I are in agreement that certifications can be advantageous, especially if your company foots the bill, we don't view them as an essential element of success. And yes, we also share how certifications could give your resume's SEO a nice little boost!
But we don't stop there. Our curiosity piques as we further delve into various IT certifications, including those from Cisco, AWS, and CompTIA Linux Plus. We believe that certifications can play a pivotal role in climbing the corporate ladder, especially if your chosen field is tech-oriented. So, if your company offers to pay for them, why not grab the opportunity? Let's unpick the world of certifications, their relevance in the fast-paced tech industry, and how they can help future-proof your career. Don't forget to tune in for our unique blend of tech talk, movie madness, and the latest on Clark's health, only on our podcast.
