Ponderings From The Perch

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about careers. They ruminate about the reality that so many viable careers did not even exist when they were in school, question their own career paths and are faced with how to explain to 4th and 5th graders what they actually do all day! They discuss the rate of technological change and try to imagine an advertising agency job without social media. Priscilla discusses digital marketing, platform building, and bizarre soft skills that are required for today's successful professional career. As they prepare to walk into a Career Day for 4th and 5th graders they talk about what they wish someone would have told them "back in the day".
