Job Search, Promotion, and Career Clarity: The Mid-Career GPS Podcast
155: Everyone Is Replaceable (Even Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon)
Last week, Tucker Carlson and Fox News parted ways, and CNN terminated Don Lemon. As we’ve followed the news this past week, it got me thinking about how we are all replaceable. No matter how good or how valuable you think, you are.
In this episode, John breaks down some career thought derailers for you and why the sooner we realize we are all replaceable, the better our mid-career journeys will be. Plus, you’ll learn the difference between being replaceable and valuable and how they impact your Mid-Career GPS.
