אהבתיSeason 3 of the smash hit FX/Hulu show “The Bear” roared to life just days ago, but Will Poulter (the actor who plays fan-favorite Luca) and 2014 F&W Best New Chef Dave Beran had been prepping for weeks. Poulter — like his co-star Jeremy Allen White — staged with Beran at his Santa Monica restaurant Pasjoli to learn how to accurately portray a professional chef onscreen. The lessons went so well, Beran says he’d hire Poulter as a cook — even despite a messy mishap with a pastry bag. The two dished all about getting kitchen culture right on and offscreen, what it takes to be at the top of your craft, and the pure magic of a great restaurant service.

In this week’s show, Phil talks to Don Pezet, the CTO and Lead Edutainer at ITPro.TV. He has been working in the IT industry since 1997 and has been training others since 2001. He is a certified trainer with many vendors including Microsoft, CompTIA, Google and Cisco.
His combination of real-world experience, textbook knowledge, and a questionable sense of humour have helped him to entertain and educate thousands of people.
Don talks about why it’s vital that we are continually learning throughout our IT journey. He also discusses we should never settle when it comes to our IT career.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
TOP CAREER TIP
Always do your best to be continually learning and developing, even in your spare time, which can provide a fun and experimental time. Make IT your passion and always look at what is possible.
WORST CAREER MOMENT
Don worked with a student who did not correctly implement a server and its functionality. This led to a huge loss of data.
CAREER HIGHLIGHT
Don has overseen the implementation and creation of many systems from scratch, taking advantage of new technologies and helping to found new ways of working that have lasted.
THE FUTURE OF CAREERS IN I.T
The stability of the IT sector. IT is not going away, and will only ever grow stronger and more robust as a sector.
THE REVEAL
What first attracted you to a career in I.T.? – The potential for experimentation and creativity.
What’s the best career advice you received? – To apply for jobs you’re not qualified for.
What’s the worst career advice you received? – TO get out of IT as it’s not stable.
What would you do if you started your career now? – Don would focus on cybersecurity as it’s become far more important.
What are your current career objectives? – Making the training product that he wished had existed when he first began in IT
What’s your number one non-technical skill? – Reading and communication.
How do you keep your own career energized? – By always learning something new.
What do you do away from technology? – Reading and experimenting with technology.
FINAL CAREER TIP
Never settle when it comes to your career. Some find a comfortable niche and don’t like to be challenged. But the world of IT is one that provides endless possibilities in areas you’re passionate about.
BEST MOMENTS
(6:55) – Don – “It used to be enough to say that you wanted to get into IT – now there are all types of specialisations”
(8:14) – Don - “A good IT pro is always learning!”
(16:50) – Don – “We’re constantly having to evaluate the field to determine if we’ve got the right training to set people up to be successful”
(19:36) – Don – “What’s exciting about IT is the experimentation – that you can try different things”

He also discusses the value in reminding ourselves of our own capabilities when challenges arise.

The internet has made this a much easier prospect as we are all connected. WORST CAREER MOMENT As well as suffering a crisis of self-doubt and pivoting in his career, Sunir was fired after a particularly disappointing business encounter. But this experience led him to the founding of his company. CAREER HIGHLIGHT Sunir had delivered a system designed to provide the foundation for a TV channel, Sunir took all the code he thought was useless and deleted it, despite many insisting that it was an extreme approach.

BEST MOMENTS (2:49) – Sunir - “When you think about what’s the purpose of life, what’s the rewarding part? For me it has been seeing other people’s lives improve through my work” (5:19) – Sunir - “Reach out to people. Even people you don’t understand. Ask questions. Learn to see the world through their eyes. You’ll gain something from them, no matter what” (12:18) – Sunir – “No one can run a business if they can’t even control their own time” (15:55) – Sunir – “You can do anything if you have confidence.

הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיIn this week’s show, Phil talks to Meredydd Luff, the CEO and cofounder of Anvil, a platform for building full-stack web apps entirely in Python. He has a PhD in building usable programming systems from Cambridge University and he wants to make programming more accessible for everyone. Meredydd talks about the importance of finding your “and” – the secondary skill that adds value to you. He also discusses why bringing your unique offerings to your IT career can make all the difference. KEY TAKEAWAYS: TOP CAREER TIP Look for what your personal “and” is. If you are just a developer then that’s okay, but it’s always best to be one thing “and” another. This makes life much more interesting and yourself much more valuable. WORST CAREER MOMENT After completing a huge amount of work, Meredydd discovered that his system had been built upon degraded hard disks. This led to a huge outage for a popular messaging system in the Philippines. CAREER HIGHLIGHT Starting and building Anvil – taking the complete system from an idea to fruition, and the experiences learned along the way. THE FUTURE OF CAREERS IN I.T As cloud services and the like continue to grow, it has meant that the doors are open to far more people. So long as people have the drive to do so, the IT sector is open to all. THE REVEAL What first attracted you to a career in I.T.? – Meredydd was attracted to the creative component of IT. What’s the best career advice you received? – That studying something we enjoy is fine, and can sit well alongside a serious career. What’s the worst career advice you received? – That he should have taken the money over a route that seemed more fun. What would you do if you started your career now? – Meredydd would begin tinkering with systems a lot earlier than he did. What are your current career objectives? Refining and perfecting Anvil and turning into the best system it can be. What’s your number one non-technical skill? – Being an extrovert, caring about others, and curiosity. How do you keep your own career energized? – Running a startup! What do you do away from technology? – Flying airplanes and ballroom dancing. FINAL CAREER TIP Find the thing that is interesting to you, and upon which you can offer a unique perspective, and bring that to your IT career. BEST MOMENTS (6:00) – Meredydd - “The way things are with traditional web development, there’s not much a learning curve as a learning cliff” (8:12) – Meredydd - “Being at the intersection of someone who can do two different things – that’s really valuable” (23:53) – Meredydd – “If you are one of these people who has the bit between their teeth, the fact that there are so many routes into a career means that you can afford to follow your heart” (27:02) – Meredydd – “If you are the tinkering type, then tinkering your way into a career is as valid a choice as ever” ABOUT THE HOST – PHIL BURGESS Phil Burgess is an independent IT consultant who has spent the last 20 years helping organizations to design, develop, and implement software solutions.

He is now the co-founder and CEO of Centered, designing the platform and building a team that shares his passion for achieving mindfulness at work. Ulf talks about the importance of keeping your creative spirit alive as your career progresses. He also discusses the value in documenting your ideas. KEY TAKEAWAYS: TOP CAREER TIP If you have a creative spirit, always make sure that you keep this spirit alive in whatever you do. Make time to create and always be curious about what could be. WORST CAREER MOMENT Ulf experienced a time in his career when he felt as though he should become a manager, because of the expectations placed upon him by others. He soon realized that this was not where his passion truly lay. CAREER HIGHLIGHT Ulf prefers to focus upon the failures of his career, rather than become too nostalgic for the highlights. He feels that this spurs him on to do better. THE FUTURE OF CAREERS IN I.T Ulf is most excited about the accessibility of the IT sector, and how it allows anyone entry, no matter what their background is.

What’s the best career advice you received? – You always want to have a smaller piece of a much larger pie.

How do you keep your own career energized? – Learning about new things and iterating constantly. What do you do away from technology? – Ulf is dedicated to his newborn daughter.
