This was episode #19 of Seeking Wisdom and has come up a lot recently, so we wanted to try something new and bring back one of the classics. -- Today we’re talking career advice. But this career advice is going to be unpopular among the millennial crowd. Everyone wants a mentor, or someone to “pick their brain over coffee." Everyone wants to become an executive overnight. But first, you need to carry the water. You need to put in your time. Here’s what no one ever tells you early in your career: you actually have two jobs. The first job? Crushing your job. Your day-to-day to work. The things you were hired for. Your second job? Managing up and making the life of your manager or boss easier. That’s what we’re talking about today on Seeking Wisdom.
