23. Erin Combs: Anticipation Starts with Listening and Ends with Talking - a podcast by Mine the Gap

Erin Combs is an associate consultant, market research at one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. She shares how marketing research has taught her to anticipate and challenges 20-somethings to go “beyond just understanding the technical part” of your job and to find ways to add intangible value to your team. We also talk about the importance of asking questions to point out others’ blind spots and Erin shares why it’s important to triangulate your personal and professional growth.
