  • "Do you have multiple professional identities? Do you struggle to describe to other people what you do? Hybrid professionals are workers who blend and combine their different professional identities together, working from the intersections of those identities. This is what makes them unique and valuable, but up until now, we haven't had a way to articulate it. Hybridity is a critical way to conceptualize the workforce, and it's time we recognize and accept this key idea.
    " Sarabeth Berk considers herself a hybrid professional who combines her artist/researcher/educator/designer identities to be more than her job title. Sarabeth obtained her PhD in curriculum studies and instruction, and leads innovation strategy in nonprofits, K-12, and higher education. When she isn’t transforming or disrupting the status quo, she listens to a zillion podcasts, solves word puzzles, and lets her curiosity run wild. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

      Not so great thing is the truth that she has mentioned "once you are this hybrid professional HR industry thinks it lowers your credbility". But that's HR problem. This is why business suffers these days. This is why so many positions don't get filled in. Wake up guys, hybrid professionals are already in here. And no, not only in artistic fileds or digital world. Also in more "traditional" professions.

    Value to me or someone else? Different things. As far as hybridity goes, I don't use half of what I know or what I can do at work. I bet it's the same for most. It's hard to get around Pareto.

      I do use all I have gathered, from design to business strategy to human management etc, everything I do requires skills I have gained from my diff career trips so far. Eg: Operations Lead, I analyze processes and see how to be efficient and effective and affordable etc, in design I think about use cases and best cost savings ways of designing, for people management best ways to make life easy for them etc. Its all blended for me.

      @@olamidecooldude That's not much then in a broad sense, kind of narrow and deep. I would find it hard to believe there aren't other things you are good at. For instance, I am in IT support and I am a supervisor. I have a master's degree in IS and know Macs very well, windows and linux ok. Been doing it 28 years, hardware and software support, networking etc. On the other hand, I can fix/repair/build a lot of different things. I do all the car and motorcycle repair and maintenance at home, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, glass work too. I've done a fair amount of grounds work, transplanted trees, put down sod, vegetable gardens, etc. I can weld too. I can play the drums(studied them for 4 years), some piano and guitar. I know how to cook fairly well and enjoy it, although I skip baking. A totally different discipline. And While I have a masters in IS, my undergrad is American history with a minor in biology. I am the type of person that does well with trivial pursuit and jeopardy. SO, doing IT support for me is auto pilot. There's a lot more too. I've had a total of 38 positions in my life, many outside of IT. I've done things like auto mechanics, glass work, construction inspection, but also child abuse investigator, bail enforcement, teaching environmental education and other things too. In my mind I could be useful in many ways at work, but when you're hired to do one thing, that's how they see you. Let me see if you could blend what I have done.

    I work for my local government they are transitioning from a government model to a corporate model since a lot of corporate people are ending up in government.... ie Trump! You want a hybrid professional but pay is on a singular model! Until pay scales match the hybrid professional I will do a single job for a single pay.
    Yes I am tell you about all of the wonder skills talents and abilities that I possess however, you will receive those skills based on what you have decided to pay. The branding of the workplace is dangerous. Jobs are at an all time low and telling an employer that you can you can wear all of these hats just to stand out then wonder why you can’t see your kids, have several stress related illnesses and not enough pay to eat!
    I always tell employers I’m sure your pay is comparable to compensate me for all the skills that you hope I will use don’t ask me to go above and beyond when my pay remains the same!
