In our conversation, we talked about a few things related to career pivots, specifically around culture, fit, and to think about how you best work. There are so many things about how we work on and off campus these days, including remote work, virtual teaming, and making connections with peers when you are a distributed organization.
“When you’re thinking about the job you’re going to do and how you’re going to spend your days -- you do need to think about what will you be doing during the day and what brings you energy?” says @JaimieLHoffman
It was an interesting perspective on how the transition to a campus partner is like from leaving the campus. We talk about the opportunities to innovate and challenge the norms of how we think about student success and learning in the digital age, and what it means to do this work in higher education from the corporate sector. And we chat a bit about professional identity, values, and interests for career opportunities.Here are some links and resources:

“Think of the verbs, and don’t get tied with the nouns, because you might be able to create your own job... or the job that you’re looking for might not be created.” Career advice from @JaimieLHoffman
