Opis

"The Generalist's Edge - Why range beats depth in an unpredictable world" challenges the 10,000-hour rule and the cult of specialization. In a rapidly changing economy where AI can automate specific, repetitive tasks, this book argues that the future belongs to the polymaths-those who can connect dots between disparate fields. It validates the "jack of all trades" as the master of integration.Career strategist David Epstein explains the concept of "skill stacking." Instead of being the top 1% in one narrow field, readers learn to be in the top 25% of three different fields, creating a unique intersection that is impossible to replicate. The book provides examples from history and modern tech, showing how breakthroughs often come from outsiders who brought a fresh perspective."The Generalist's Edge" is a permission slip for the curious souls who refuse to pick a single lane. It teaches how to leverage a diverse background into a competitive advantage, proving that in a complex world, breadth is the ultimate form of depth.

Discover why specialists are replaceable and how connecting different skills makes you indispensable.
