After 12 years of working as a GIS specialist / Consultant, I quit and I am ready to move on.
Looking back at the last 12 years if I could go back in time and give myself some advice I would tell myself these 8 things.
Boring Work won’t necessarily lead to interesting work
Getting good at something typical leads to doing more of that thing
Have more empathy for the professionals that you work with
Think more about where you are trying to go
Network
Find a mentor
Sometimes it's just not a good fit
You don’t get to decide what is broken
Things I need help with
Share the podcast with a friend, a community anyone that you think might find it interesting or helpful
I am looking for projects based on or around OpenStreetMap - this is part of a promotional campaign that I am doing together with OpenCage - More information here
