#072: 1,000 Years of Career Advice with Paul Murphy

Imagine having 1,000 years’ worth of career advice, how would you use that to advise others or even improve your own career outcomes? Well, our guest mentor and finance professional Paul Murphy has answered these questions by writing an Amazon #1 bestselling book that interviewed 100 graduates 10 years out of university about their career paths, their hard won lessons, how they overcame obstacles and what advice they would give others in hindsight. And even better a lot of the insights are relevant for finance professionals as 33% of those interviewed have worked in finance and Paul shares some of their stories in this episode. Some other areas we cover together are: • One piece of critical advice that will allow you to get into the more fun finance roles and how to go about it. • Practical advice on how to select a mentor for the biggest impact on your career. • Real advice on how approach senior managers and what really happens when you step outside your comfort zone.
