Om Podcasten

Skills for Mars is my passion project. It is a podcast about the future and also about now. It is about change, the new world of work and the skill set needed to have meaningful, impactful careers and lives. From actually going to Mars and creating a new home there, to the uprising of the gig economy, esports and the gaming industry, AI and Blockchain, arts, genetics, environmental hacking and why not - pure surviving skills - we will touch on what it takes to make it out there. Whether you are still in school, 40 or 60, a parent guiding their child, someone that wants to start a career or change it, a business or an HR Leader that wants to better understand the new world of work - Welcome to Skills for Mars!
