145: AI Is Making Human Skills More Valuable Than Ever

from Personalization Outbreak · host Glenn Llopis

"The technical skills only take you so far. The durable skills are what allow you to really excel, allow people who know how to do things to become leaders or managers of other people who do those things, maybe, down the road.
