Ep 39: Remote work, pace of change, and future skills with Rebecca Scott

Money Career & Motherhood Podcast

The way we work changed almost overnight when Covid hit. In the beginning, we thought the changes were temporary. But now, companies and individuals are adapting to a new normal, where remote work is permanent and change is constant. In this episode of The Money, Career & Motherhood Podcast I’m talking with Rebecca Scott, host of the Humans, Now and Then podcast, about the changes companies need to make to adjust to a long term remote workforce, how people are really adapting to the rate of technology change, and the shifts needed in higher education to make sure our kids leave college prepared for their future.

During this episode Rebecca referenced the gap between higher education and skills needed within today’s workforce. For further reading, see 3 Ways to Realign Higher Education With Today’s Workforce.
