Joe Mullings is founder, chairman, and CEO of The Mullings Group, the world’s leading search firm in medtech, healthtech and the life sciences, as well as the founder of a number of other companies, including a production company and a start-up incubator. In this episode, MBO Partners speaks with Joe about his ideas about how the future of technology is already impacting the future of work and the future of search and how workers need to be in control of their own career and personal brand to stay competitive.

Joe talks about how independent professionals have become a critical and in-demand part of the talent ecosystem due to the acceleration of the specialization of skills in specific verticals and industries and the convergence of technologies around service- and platform-based work. He speaks about how the expectation that learning is complete at the end of college is shortsighted for those launching a career and how a lifelong reskilling mindset is required for any worker today. He also talk about the need for talent to develop their subject matter expertise into thought leadership to the point of becoming a voice in their industry, using himself as an example of someone who has used the lessons of social media marketing to stake that claim in his own industry space.
