Is being a specialist better than being a generalist?

Show Notes

There are certainly pros to being a specialist. No one wants an airline pilot who is “kind of good” at flying a plane. But does that mean being a specialist is always better than being a generalist?

In this episode we’ll share our own personal experiences with - at times - being on track to become specialists in certain areas, but also seeing the value in being good at a lot of different things.

Points Discussed in this Episode

• The idea that being a specialist is somehow superior or makes you better versus being a generalist 
• Situations where being a specialist would be of benefit 
• Does it have to be one or the other, or can it be both?
• Things we “could have been” GREAT at
