Economic shifts and emerging technologies are redefining career success. Assessing where you stand today can help you gain a clear understanding of your talents and make informed, strategic decisions about what’s next.

When conducting a self-assessment, many people focus on their skill gaps. But Megan Elrath, who manages the graduate online career services, suggests starting with the expertise you already have.

“By focusing on your strengths first, you can then devise a strategy to fill any skill gaps in a way that honors and emphasizes your existing attributes," she says.

Explore the key questions that can help you build the skills needed to plan your future with clarity and confidence.

Are we prepared to deal with the consequences of finding life beyond Earth?

The discovery of extraterrestrial microbial life would represent not only a scientific milestone but a geopolitical event. In a recent article, Georgia Tech’s Margaret E. Kosal, professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs and MSISEC Online program, together with Dayana Alagirova and Karryl Trajano, explore the possibilities of discovering extraterrestrial life in microbial form and discuss three possible outcomes.

Considering these potential consequences in advance can help nations and the international community prepare to address the complexities posed by extraterrestrial biology.

The current labor market isn’t divided by age. It’s divided by stereotypes and a lack of curiosity.

Multigenerational workplaces succeed when participants, from Gen Z to Baby Boomers, treat one another with respect, authenticity, and curiosity. As technology and AI continue to change how we work and communicate, we must redefine what successful interactions look like. Moving past the “right” terminology and prioritizing mutual understanding will foster stronger interactions across generations.

Katherine Samford, director of the Georgia Tech Language Institute, emphasizes that it all comes down to connection.

“The question will shift from ‘Am I able to communicate a message clearly?’ to, ‘Am I able to engage clearly, efficiently, and empathetically in a way that sounds like me?’”

Explore the generations shaping today's workplace and the experiences that influence how they communicate and collaborate.
