Join Kelly as she sits down with Kelley Steven-Waiss to discuss what skills have fueled her career. Kelley is the Founder, Executive Chairman, and Chief Product Officer of Hitch Works, a skills intelligence and talent mobility platform. She talks about why she is so passionate about revolutionizing HR practices, what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur, and why she wants to increase access to education and skill-building opportunities.

Kelley believes in disrupting HR to allow for jungle gym careers.

Takeaways:

  1. One of the most interesting things about humans is that we are amalgamations of our life experiences and our professional experiences.
  2. Leverage your network, do your homework, and then be fearless.
  3. I would argue that the more adversity you have, the better you can overcome objections or difficulties in the future.
