Want something edifying to do on your commute to work? We suggest listening to podcasts. More specifically, career podcasts that can help you improve your career and reach your job goals, whether it is snagging a promotion, switching jobs or getting inspired to start your own business. Here is a list of our favourite ones to get started.
THE SCHOOL OF GREATNESS
When an injury prevented Lewis Howes from continuing to play professional football, he decided to channel his energy instead to become a New York Times bestselling author and lifestyle entrepreneur. On top of that, he also started this podcast aimed at sharing inspiring stories on what makes great people great by interviewing brilliant business minds, world-class athletes and celebrities. So if you’ve always wanted to know the tips and tricks, tune in to this one.
CAREER CLOUD RADIO
This podcast is downloaded more than 2,500 times a day, which means it’s definitely got something on it! Guests include resume writers, career coaches and recruiters who share their experience and tips on resume writing, interviewing, job resources and other career topics.
THIS IS YOUR LIFE
Michael Hyatt, a former publishing house CEO, shares practical tips in his podcast on how to boost your energy, delegate effectively, saying no with ease ... the things you wanted to know and do for a more productive and successful work week! What’s also great about this podcast is its library (the podcast started a while back) so you can easily scroll through for an episode that addresses your current career woe.
BEING BOSS
Always wanted to be your own boss? Let Emily Thompson and Kathleen Shannon, creators of this podcast, tell you how!
