Like most of us, I have wished many things were taught to me at school that were not on the curriculum. While so much of what we need to learn can only be taught through experience, many skills that could be taught in school aren't. Please know I am not faulting teachers or even the education system. There is so much to be taught and the laundry list of items could be endless!   Yet, what are some of the things that we needed to learn but didn't? My new friend, Mark Herschberg answers that question in his excellent book, The Career Toolkit. Mark developed the material from 20 years of teaching MIT students all the things they’ll need to know to succeed but weren’t taught even at a top-tier institution.   I wish I had this book when I started my career but I'm so glad it is available to my children and I'm also grateful it's available to me even at this stage of life.   Mark is a graduate of MIT for both his undergraduate and master’s degree, a seasoned startup expert, a successful CTO at various companies, and he has done all kinds of other cool things in his life ranging from fighting cybercrime and becoming an award-winning ballroom dancer.   So, listen in as mark and I talk about interview skills, negotiation skills, and of course, the skills that we will need as AI becomes more and more relevant.
