In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey.  This year, I've committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it's been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this.During this time, I've been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives.I've always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I'm the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I've been like this for as long as I can remember.Looking back, I've come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn't believe in taking vacations; if I did, I'd bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn't working?I dive into this and more in the episode!

Welcome to episode #985 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Kathleen deLaski is one of the most important voices rethinking the purpose, structure, and future of higher education. As founder of the Education Design Lab and board chair of Credential Engine, she's spent the last decade helping over 1,200 colleges, organizations, and regional economies reimagine learning pathways for next-generation students - particularly the new majority learners often left behind by traditional institutions. Her new book, Who Needs College Anymore? is a provocative and optimistic look at how postsecondary education must evolve, drawing on over a decade of field research, human-centered design, and more than 150 interviews with educators, employers, learners, and policymakers. In this conversation, we unpack the diploma divide, the rising cost of education, the friction between what college teaches and what employers expect, and how AI is rewriting the script for entry-level jobs and professional training. Kathleen - whose career spans time as a journalist at ABC News, a Pentagon spokesperson, working at AOL in the early days of the Internet, and a philanthropic force behind education reform - brings not just perspective but practical ideas on how colleges, businesses, and society must adapt. This one challenges what we think college is for, and what meaningful learning might look like in a skills-based future. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 51:11. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

She's a pro at finding the right people, saying the quiet parts out loud, and reminding companies that “professional” doesn't have to mean “emotionally detached robot.”In this episode, Megan and I get into:What it's really like to go solo and start consultingWhy owning your squiggly career path is a total flexHow leaders can stop the talent drain (hint: it starts with respect and ends with not being a jerk)The outdated workplace vibes we're leaving behind (bye, “leave it at the door”)Megan brings the heat, the honesty, and a whole lot of human.

Last month, the unemployment rate for recent college grads surged to nearly 6 percent. Compared to the overall economy's jobless rate, the unemployment rate for recent grads is higher now than in any month on record, going back at least four decades. Business school grads are struggling, too. Last year, The Wall Street Journal reported that elite MBA programs saw that their most recent classes had "worse job-placement outcomes last year than any other in recent memory." What's going on? Today's guest is David Deming, an economist at Harvard who studies education and the future of work. We walk through some plain-Jane theories about the weakening labor market for young college grads. But then, as you'll hear, the conversation expands to consider the coming storm of AI—and how artificial intelligence is changing education and the workforce for young people. To read more on this topic, check out Derek's Atlantic column from last week. If you have questions, observations, or ideas for future episodes, email us at PlainEnglish@Spotify.com.

He attributes this to AI replacing jobs, declining college enrollment, and rising tuition costs, with student loan debt doubling to $1.7 trillion since Obama's nationalization. Markowski criticizes universities' focus on subsidies over outcomes, suggesting taxing their endowments or athletic revenues to reduce student loan balances, and warns of widespread hiring freezes fueling graduate frustration. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

Chad Oakley,  CEO of  Charles Aris, a second-generation executive search firm, discusses their 55-year history and their focus on four areas. Charles Aris specializes in strategy and go-to-market practice, which places individuals into corporations, private equity firms, and portfolio companies. Chad explains their areas of expertise and mentions that the firm has a team of over 100 and has completed over 1,450 positions in this area in the last 21 years. They also have a finance and corporate development practice, which handles CFOs, FPAs, and candidates for merger and acquisition roles. Additionally, they have an engineering and operations practice that handles supply chain, CFO, and plant managers. The Changing Market for Consultants Chad, a former consultant, discusses the changing market for consulting in the age of uncertainty, and what the market is looking for. He traces back to April 2024, when consulting in the United States was down, particularly for top firms like Bain, BCG, McKinsey Strategy, and L.E.K EY Parthenon. The downturn was driven by higher interest rates and inflation. Chad talks about the factors leading to high interest rates and how it impacted consulting firms, private equity firms and M&A activity. He touches on how consulting firms reacted to this downturn and how it affected consultants. Chad shares a 2025 Compensation study conducted by Charles Aris showing a range of data that covers undergrads and MBAs, major consulting firms and competitors. He then shares three primary factors that caused a rise in the market in January 2025.  The market is now looking for new opportunities and challenges.  Key Factors Leading to Market Change for Consultants Chad explains the factors that led to the changes in the market over the past year. The newly elected President, Trump, was bullish on business, promising to rally markets better than Biden and eliminate red tape and regulations. This positive outlook led to a more optimistic outlook for the market. Business is recovering, creating solid momentum in the economy. In Q1 2024, companies started investing and private equity firms resumed deals, resulting in stronger demand for consulting services. However, the implementation of tariffs by the President has arrested this momentum, creating uncertainty for business leaders. The current tariffs have no playbook for them, and the possibility of changes in the future makes it difficult for current CEOs or business leadership teams to commit to action.  Chad shares a conversation he had with the CEO of a publicly traded manufacturing company CEO, who has manufacturing facilities in the US, China, and South America. He cannot justify the massive investment in onshore manufacturing due to the potential decrease in tariffs. This has halted deal momentum, particularly in consulting services. Despite this, consulting firms are still working on projects they sold in the first few months of the year. They are now trying to be strategic about their consulting services, focusing on key areas to win and play in the market. The Number One Area of Focus for Consulting Firms.  Chad explains that consulting firms are trying to be strategic in their direction, which has led to a focus on supply chain consulting. Companies are trying to navigate the impact of tariffs on their supply chains, and consulting firms are helping them do so by reshuffling their manufacturing base from high tariff countries to low tariff countries. They are also helping clients re-negotiate procurement contracts with global suppliers and consider acquiring competitors with a more favorable supply chain structure. Consulting firms are gearing up for a bulk of demand for supply chain services, and focusing on blue and white collar services. They are also doubling down on consulting playbooks for their services, including blue and white collar services, which is also a major area of focus for private equity firms. Consulting firms are also looking at government advocacy, such as lobbying and creating influence with lawmakers. The Impact of AI on Consulting Firms Chad discusses the significant impact of AI on consulting services. He mentions that many successful big brand companies are utilizing AI in their operations. A private equity firm's head of AI stated that the impact of AI is expected to be minimal in the next 18 months, as companies are still trying to find ways to add value with the technology. Chad acknowledges that AI is an incredible tool, and that it will be interesting to see how much it will truly change the way businesses operate in the next 12-18 months. A Growing Trend of Interim Consulting Roles Chad talks about the growth in what they call interim executive hiring in the marketplace, specifically around private equity and mostly for a limited period of time. The primary areas hiring for these roles are finance and strategy. He explains that specificity is highly sought after, and he encourages generalists to narrow their scope. The conversation turns to the structure of executive search firms for P.E. firms. Chad states that there are two primary groups within PE firms: the Deal team, and the Portfolio Operations team. He explains how they function and how they find and recruit talent. He offers advice on how to reach out to the hiring team, and talks about reaching out to consulting firms for a position and which areas of service have seen a decline and which ones are in demand. He specifically mentions pricing as an area of demand due to the tariffs.  Key Questions Answered in the Q&A Session  Chad answers questions from the panel, including his recommendations on the path to a private equity operating partner, areas of experience that are highly valued; the impact of DOGE on consulting, how independent consultants can position themselves for a full-time position; the value of demonstrable startup experience, AI displacing junior roles; recruiting for board roles, PE's interests in blue collar and white collar companies; and a positive outlook for mature consultants.

Resilience in the U.S. job market are lifting stocks on Wall Street.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on a surprising jobs gain.

Welcome back to another Future-Focused Weekly Update where hopefully I'm helping you stay 10 steps ahead of the chaos at the intersection of business, tech, and the human experience. This week's update is loaded as usual and includes everything from disturbing new research about AI's inner workings to a college affordability crisis that's hitting even six-figure families, a stalled job market that has job seekers stuck for months, and Google doubling down on a questionable return-to-office push. With that, let's get into it.⸻AI Deception Confirmed by New Anthropic Research:Recent research from Anthropic reveals that AI's chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, the explanation behind its decisions, is inaccurate more than 80% of the time. That's right, 80%. However, it doesn't stop there. It finds 99% of shortcuts or hacks to achieve its goal. However, it only tells you when it did less than 2% of the time. I break down what this means for explainable AI, human-in-the-loop models, and why some of the most common AI training methods are actually making things worse.⸻College Now Unaffordable — Even for $300K FamiliesA viral survey is making waves with some pretty jaw-dropping claim. Apparently even families earning $300,000 a year can't afford top colleges. Now, that's bad, and there's no denying college costs are soaring, but there's more to it than meets the eye. I unpack what's really going on behind the headline, why financial aid rules haven't kept up, and how this affects not just elite schools but the entire higher education landscape. I also share some personal stories and practical alternatives.⸻Job Market Slows: 6+ Month Average Search TimeOut of work and struggling to find anything? You're not alone, and you're not crazy. New LinkedIn data shows over 50% of job seekers are taking more than six months to land a new role. I dig into why it's happening, what industries are still hiring, and how to reposition your skills to stay employable. Whether you're searching or simply staying prepared in case you find yourself in a search, my goal is to help you think differently about the environment and opportunity that exists.⸻Google Pushes RTO — 60 Hours in Office?I honestly can't believe this is still a thing, especially from a tech company. However, Google made headlines again with a recent and aggressive return-to-office policy, claiming “optimal performance” requires 60 in-office hours per week. I break down the questionable logic behind the claim, the anxiety driving these decisions, and what it means for the future of hybrid work. While there's lots of noise about “the truth” behind it, this isn't just about real estate or productivity, it's about misdirected executive anxiety.⸻If this resonated with you or gave you something to think about, drop a comment, share with a friend, and be sure to subscribe so you don't miss what's next.Show Notes:In this weekly update, host Christopher Lind navigates the intersection of business, tech, and human experience. Key topics include the emerging trend of companies adopting AI-first strategies, a detailed analysis of Anthropic's recent AI research, and its implications for explainable AI. Christopher also discusses the rising costs of higher education and offers practical advice for navigating college affordability amidst financial aid constraints. Furthermore, he provides a snapshot of the current job market, highlighting industries with better hiring prospects and strategies for job seekers. Lastly, the episode addresses Google's recent push for in-office work and the underlying motivations behind such corporate decisions.00:00 - Introduction 01:10 - AI Trends in Business: Shopify and Duolingo03:31 - Anthropic Research On AI Deception23:29 - College Affordability Crisis34:48 - LinkedIn Job Market Data43:47 - Google RTO Debate49:36 - Concluding Thoughts and Advice#FutureOfWork #AIethics #HigherEdCrisis #JobSearchTips #LeadershipInsights
