In just 10 minutes reading this well-articulated wealth of wisdom & practical advice from decades of experience, anyone can define a solid career plan. I especially believe that in this age of AI agents, ability to communicate clearly to build trust & credibility is a huge asset which only comes with practice in non-toxic work environments. Rishad's advice to "create goodwill by helping others and giving back, expose oneself to new people and thinking which can help one’s current job and much more" has indeed helped me tremendously during the past 10 years. Thank you, Rishad, for your wisdom & genuine generosity.
This is such a clear and powerful look at the future of work. The idea of a 50-year career really changes the game—it’s no longer about climbing the ladder with a static job title. It’s about the value we bring, the impact we create, and our ability to adapt and learn continuously.
Thank you Rishad. Your posts always seem to hit me at the right time. They are relevant and actionable. I am very fortunate to come of age when I did, because I’ve had to adapt quickly to changes in work, driven by tech innovation, recession and a global pandemic. I experienced Facebook and social networks while in college, the IPhone and app store at my first job after school, the Great Recession in business school (to keep me grounded), and accelerated computing and AI as a seasoned executive, practiced in business management, inspired by human intelligence and made hyper productive by AI.
As I think about the rest of my life, you help me consider what is yet to come and remind me of the importance of adaptation and continuous leaning.

Great advice! Thanks for these reminders.
Great career counsel as always Rishad. I hope some of the folks from GM who were laid off recently are subscribers to your newsletter.
