Becoming Irreplaceable — with Brie Wolfson and Tamara Winter
Being smart, informed, and efficient used to be enough to stand out.
Today, those qualities are widely accessible.
If intelligence is abundant, what becomes scarce?
How do you figure out what you care about?
What’s worth getting good at, and how do you become excellent?
In the process of honing one's craft, what can be outsourced, and what shouldn’t be?
What does the current discourse overlook?
In this conversation, Brie Wolfson and Tamara Winter join Ashley Zhang to explore these questions.
