from Career Revisionist with Dr. Grace Lee · host Mastery Insights

We have all been programmed at an early age to go to school, get good grades, and land a safe and secure job. And if there's one thing you need to know about the academic environment, it's that it is designed to give you the historical and technical knowledge focused around an offering of subjects. It's not designed to teach you how to make sense of the knowledge you've collected, how to organize it, how to apply it, and turn it into invaluable wisdom. In this episode, Dr. Grace talks about 7 specific things that you don't learn in school that could be setting you up for failure in your career. Do you want to advance and get ahead in your career?
