A Special Workshop: Building Your Career Team

March 20

Episode Description

What would it actually look like to make career a team sport? 

Not as a philosophy, but as a tangible offering with real structure?

That's what we explore in this special episode, an unrehearsed workshop with Jay Acunzo.

Jay is good friend and someone who helps leaders communicate their expertise in a creative, compelling, and memorable way. 

He's incredibly talented, and trusted by authors, coaches, creators, and brands like Salesforce and Mailchimp. 


So, when Jay offered to help, I was grateful and excited. 

More specifically, Jay challenged me to answer a simple question: If I hired you to make my career a team sport, what would you do for me? 

And then he offered to be the guinea pig.

What follows is a real-time conversation where we build the idea together, exploring questions like:

  • What would a Career Team General Manager actually do?
  • What's the roster of people you need around you, and what roles do they play?
  • Why do Slack groups and masterminds often fall apart, and what might work instead?
  • How do you create an 'easy invite' to build relationships that might evolve into teamwork without just asking for someone's time?
  • How can I continue exploring this and create content that clarifies my thinking with the goal of a tangible frame, and maybe more? (Jay's ARC framework)

Please enjoy, and let us know what you think.
