Former President Barack Obama recently shared his career advice in an interview with LinkedIn’s editor-in-chief Daniel Roth. According to Obama, the key to career success is to learn how to just get stuff done. He also emphasized the importance of finding purpose in work by aligning your interests and passions with your career path. Additionally, Obama discussed the potential impact of AI on the workforce and suggested that conversations about reorganizing work may be necessary in the future. He advocates for reducing the 40-hour workweek to 35 hours to disperse work among employees. Obama also hosts the docuseries Working: What We Do All Day on Netflix, which explores the meaning and purpose of work.
