In this episode, I speak with Lisa Lewin - the dynamic CEO of General Assembly, a leading platform offering courses in coding, design, data, and business. With over a third of Fortune 100 companies utilizing its services, General Assembly's goal is to upskill and re-skill talent needed in today's rapidly changing world.

But Lisa's accomplishments don't stop there. She also serves on the boards of the Wikimedia Foundation, Bank Street College of Education, and the Leadership Now Project. With a BS from Washington University in St. Louis and an MBA with honors from Harvard Business School, she's a true force to be reckoned with in the education and business world.

I wanted to speak with Lisa because how we used to think about jobs and careers in terms of long-term employment has been forever changed. We're seeing the emergence of a new world where skills are more important and valuable than the job you hold. In today's discussion, we delve into the future of education, compare the value of skills versus pedigree, and explore how to balance diversity and competence in hiring. Plus, we uncover the most in-demand skills for the near future.
