Much has been made about the fast-changing work market and how we are unable to forecast what career prospects will look like, or the required skills we will require with any degree of accuracy. In such a world, it could make more sense to anchor deep and keep some flexibility in how our careers look, rather than developing shallow talents in particular areas only to follow trends.
