Why do we try to navigate complex, ever-changing careers relying on only ourselves or a manager? Why do we tend to think that career development needs to be a program or process? According to Julie Winkle Giulioni, career development champion, thought leader, and guru, we are making it too complicated. We need to simplify career development down to quality conversations. Conversations that we have together with our peers, our managers, and more. Career development should be a team sport.

Tune into this episode and hear Julie and I discuss:

Making career development a team sport
How career development is different in our current day and age
The beauty of hindsight, foresight, and insight
Immobilizing myths that hold managers and L&D back from effective career development
The power of asking great questions as a simple career development tool
