In our latest podcast episode, we dive into the transformative power of pivoting in your career, particularly within the IT industry. Pivoting—making significant changes in your career direction or focus—is crucial for navigating the fast-paced tech world and achieving long-term success. The Art of Pivoting: A Personal Journey The episode starts with Rob sharing his journey through various pivoting phases. Beginning as a staff developer, he focused on coding, but his career took several turns. These pivots have significantly influenced his professional growth, from transitioning into management to shifting back to backend development, then moving into consulting, and even branching out into writing and podcasting. This personal narrative highlights how pivoting can open new doors and lead to unexpected opportunities. Understanding Pivoting: More Than Just a Career Move Pivoting isn't merely about changing jobs or roles; it's about adapting and evolving in response to your professional environment and personal goals. The hosts explain that pivoting can manifest in various ways: Technological Shifts: Moving from one technology stack to another (e.g., from Java to .NET) to keep up with industry trends or personal interests. Role Changes: Transitioning between different layers of development (e.g., from front-end to back-end) or taking on new responsibilities like team leadership or management. Specialization: Shifting from coding to designing or architecture to align with evolving skills and career aspirations. By embracing these forms of pivoting, you can prevent stagnation and continue growing professionally. Pivoting to Prevent Career Stagnation The discussion emphasizes that pivoting is essential for avoiding career stagnation. If you find yourself plateauing in your current role, it may be time to consider a change. This could involve exploring new technologies, roles, or responsibilities that align with your evolving skills and interests. For instance, if your current work feels monotonous, learning a new technology or moving into a different role can rekindle your enthusiasm and lead to new career opportunities. Leveraging Complementary Skills for Successful Pivoting A key part of successful pivoting is leveraging complementary skills and maintaining a clear career roadmap. Regularly assessing your skills and experiences can help you identify areas for growth and opportunities for pivoting. For example, engaging in new projects or obtaining certifications can make the transition to a new role or technology smoother and more effective. Pivoting for Job Satisfaction and Mental Well-Being Not all pivoting is about climbing the career ladder; sometimes, it's about improving your job satisfaction and mental well-being. The host cites Tim Ferris's advice to stop investing time in things you dislike and to seek roles or projects that excite you. If you're feeling overworked or unhappy in your current position, pivoting to a different role or company that aligns with your interests and values can significantly enhance your career satisfaction. Practical Steps for Effective Pivoting The podcast also offers practical advice for executing a successful pivot. If you're feeling overwhelmed, taking a step back to reassess and simplify your workload can be beneficial. Focus on one task or project at a time rather than multitasking. This approach can help reduce stress and increase productivity. When making broader career changes, breaking down the process into manageable steps ensures a thoughtful and effective transition. Embracing the Power of Pivoting In summary, pivoting is a vital strategy for navigating your career and achieving professional growth. You can keep your career dynamic and fulfilling by embracing change, whether through technological shifts, role changes, or improving job satisfaction. Remember, to pivot is not just about moving up the ladder but also about aligning with your passions and adapting to new opportunities. Embrace the power of pivoting to fuel your professional growth and achieve long-term success. Continuously Evolving Your Skill Sets The journey from coder to developer is one of continuous learning and adaptation. As developers gain experience, they must recognize the evolving nature of their skill sets and adjust their professional strategies accordingly. By understanding the full scope of their value—beyond just coding—they can better navigate their careers, command higher rates, and take on more fulfilling roles that leverage their growing expertise.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Have you struggled with turnover post-pandemic? Looking for insights on adapting and fortifying your agency? What about outsourcing strategies that enable growth? The pandemic has had a profound impact on the IT industry, with one of its major consequences being the mass exodus of employees, resulting in the loss of experienced staff members who had been with companies for 15 to 20 years. This has posed a tremendous challenge for IT companies, compelling them to adapt and fortify their processes. Today's guest is an Indian entrepreneur who managed to learn and adapt to these new challenges after previous experiences surviving failure and rising again in a new niche. Tune in to gain insights on scaling your agency and the benefits of outsourcing IT services. Shamit Khemka is the founder of SynapseIndia, a premier IT outsourcing company. They are a Microsoft-certified gold partner that provides software development, custom web and mobile applications with 23+ years of experience. Their focus is open-source frameworks and ecommerce. In this interview, we'll discuss: Surviving failure and turning it into opportunity. Choosing a niche and retaining top talent in a competitive industry.

Get to know your Smart Agency Guest Host: Dr. Jeremy Weisz is the co-founder of Rise25, an agency that helps companies launch and run podcasts profitably. He followed Jason's podcast and eventually joined the mastermind and has been a guest on the podcast before. Today, he's helping Jason bring something new to the Smart Agency podcast audience by interviewing a special guest and getting a new perspective to the show. From Belly Up to Up and Running: Surviving Failure and Turning it into Opportunity Starting over after failure can be a daunting and challenging task. It requires resilience, determination, and a willingness to learn from past mistakes. However, it can also be an opportunity for growth and success. Shamit's current company is the result of starting over after his initial venture went belly up. Despite the failure, he saw an opportunity to try again with the computers and talented programmers he had left. This gave them the opportunity to explore new possibilities and start building websites and developing software. Shamit's mindset at the time was crucial in his decision to bounce back. He was young and willing to take risks, which allowed him to see failure as a learning experience rather than a setback. He also had confidence in his technological skills, receiving continued inquiries even during the dot com downfall. This indicated there was still a demand for their services, and they could leverage their existing resources to meet that demand. However determined, starting over required a strategic approach. In this sense, Shamit attributes his focus to what he learned during his participation in the MIT program, which provided him with valuable knowledge and insights that he could apply to his business. Of course, it was not easy, but it is possible. Rising from the ashes requires a positive mindset, a willingness to learn from past mistakes, and the ability to adapt and pivot. Finding a New Niche in a Mobile App Development At the time his first company went under, most people would've probably just gotten a job. Instead, Shamit decided to give entrepreneurship another try. His passion for technology played a significant role in his ability to persevere. He firmly believes in his ability to create and build a successful business using his technological skills. This new endeavor started with an offering of simple website and hosting services. With time, they also started developing straightforward software, as well as developing interesting projects with US companies. Slowly but surely his agency started moving between different technology solutions, which led to working in mobile applications. First, an EO mobile application built by Shamit himself, followed by hiring a mobile application developer. To date, the mobile division has grown to a team of 35 people. Advantages of Partnering with Indian Startups Shamit links his ability to think creatively and find solutions where none existed to a unique problem-solving approach known as "Jugaad" in India. For him, Indians are born entrepreneurs in a culture Jugaad refers to finding innovative and unconventional solutions when traditional methods fall short. Many people think of Indian labor as cheap labor and shy away from working with Indian companies. In reality, the Indian value proposition goes beyond affordability. Indian professionals have excellent English language skills, both spoken and written, which sets them apart from other countries and enables effective communication and collaboration with clients from around the world. Indian companies are hugely successful in mobile development, thanks in part to the availability of talent. With a population of over a billion people, Shamit estimates India has at least a million great engineers. This immense talent pool allows Indian companies to scale their operations and take on large-scale projects. Other than that, the biggest downside for their competitive stance versus other countries like Mexico is the time zone. For Shamit, this doesn't necessarily make things more complicated, considering the overlap between Indian and East Coast times at one point of the day and West Coast at the end of the day. This is enough of a window to have efficient communication with customers, deliver on a project, and achieve their goals. Retaining Top Talent in a Fast-Growing, Competitive Industry Recruiting and retaining top talent is a critical aspect of any successful business, and it is especially challenging in the fast-growing mobile development industry in India. Building a reputable brand and establishing trust with employees and clients is essential for attracting and retaining top talent. In his case, Shamit knew he needed to improve the agency's hiring process, which they did after participating in a program at MIT that focused on top grading. This program introduced a more objective and process-oriented approach to recruitment, reducing subjectivity in the hiring process. Another positive influence in improving their process has been studying the best practices in the industry and other verticals. However, when it comes to retention, Shamit admits it's been a tricky and challenging aspect. The IT industry is still in turmoil post Covid and what worked in the past seems to have no effect now, which meant it was time to get creative. At his agency, they offer loyalty leaves and loyalty bonuses, providing employees with additional time off based on their years of service. They also incentivize employees to take paid holidays and provide incentives for significant life events such as anniversaries, birthdays, and the birth of a child. These initiatives have proven successful in retaining employees and creating a positive work environment. They've also moved to using new tools like ChatGPT for copywriting and being overall less people-dependent. Proactive Systems, Outsourced Non-Essentials & Other Keys to Effective Leadership Shamit credits peers for leadership lessons that enabled growth. Chief among them - continuously evaluating processes, systems, and technology. Every 5 years as they expand, he reviews which processes must evolve. It was this proactivity that ensured a smooth remote transition during the pandemic. He also delegates non-core tasks through outsourcing. Why let yourself get distracted on these tasks when focus fuels success? External partners handle catering and other tangential activities. This liberates resources to deliver mobile mastery. And fun fosters engagement. Annual retreats including families strengthen bonds and morale. At work or play, Shamit's priority is a supportive culture. The whole person thrives when work has meaning and teammates feel like family. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

My guest is Julie Simpson, a delightful, fun lady who I met in the late 90's and I have always viewed as ‘a force of nature' and you will hear a lot of her energy, enthusiasm, and humour in this episode Julie is the youngest of 9 children and was born in Germany but grew up in Basingstoke. Her story is an inspirational one of starting with little and triumphing over adversity. This started at 14 when her much loved father, a Sergeant Major, died of a heart attack whilst she was with him. Leaving school at 16, she eventually found her way into the IT sector and in 2003 took the brave step of setting up her own company Resource IT, which is now one of the most successful marketing agencies focused on the I.T. Channel. Music for Julie has always been about joy, passion, and community but in recent years, particularly after her Mum passed away, some of that has gone and so appearing in this episode is part of an effort to regain some of that joy and passion. I sincerely hope its successful!So, we talk about music, but we also rightly talk at length about the challenges of being a woman in an IT sector that even today is 87% male. Julie is a co-founder of the Women in Technology Network (WIT), a global not-for-profit organisation that is centred on driving the diversity and inclusion agenda. In just under four years WIT is now represented in over 40 countries with over 3,500 members. You can find more details at Home (womenintechnology.org)Regular listeners will know I love my connections but I am not proud of this one. 87% of the IT Industry is male and it appears 87% of the guests on Music Talks have also been male. Please help me change that ! Julie would be the first to acknowledge that her song choices are mainstream, but they are also songs that she absolutely loves and that bring back a lot of great memories and positive messages.
