Most people invest massive amounts of time learning data skills before landing their first job (or a promotion).
But it’s easy to begin coasting once you adapt to your new position.
OR…
Some people struggle with HOW to develop their skills in the first place.
Totally understandable. There’s lots to learn and it’s not easy.
I just published a video where I break down a 2-step framework for skill development as well as a process for how to ensure you continually develop those skills. I’ve personally used this framework for years and it has benefitted me greatly.
The method is known as T-shaped learning and involves these 2 things:
Going Broader
Going Deeper
In the video, I share WHAT these 2 things encompass and WHY they matter.
(If you only have time for one part of the video, make it the advice at 2:30)
