The latest episode of the WorkLab podcast features Daniel Roth, LinkedIn editor in chief and VP, who’s seen how creators are leveraging the platform and changing their careers.
The pandemic showed that people are looking for more flexible ways of working, and that pay and recognition are becoming lower priorities in terms of what they want out of work. Instead, Roth says that many people want to embrace their talents and find work that fulfills them.
He offers advice on how companies can empower creatives within their organizations to bring their full selves to work, and explains why creators are integral to product marketing.
Also in this episode, you’ll hear from Temi Ibisanmi, a media campaign manager at Microsoft, who shares the story of how he became a digital creator while maintaining a corporate job, and the positive effects it’s had on his career.
WorkLab is a place for experts to share their insights and opinions. As students of the future of work, Microsoft values inputs from a diverse set of voices. That said, the opinions and findings of the experts we interview are their own and do not reflect Microsoft’s own research or positions.
You can follow the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
