Choosing a Career

1. Learn what makes for a high-impact career


Finding a career that fulfills your potential for impact is not simple, so the first step is to learn more about what it involves.

Our key ideas series introduces three key drivers of the impact of your career and shows how you can use them to compare the impact of your potential paths. We’ve found that some career paths have far more impact than others, but they’re often not the ones that first come to mind. As a whole, the key ideas series forms an in-depth guide to planning a high-impact career.

Our podcast also has over 100 in-depth conversations with experts about how to have an impactful career.Download our key ideas: an in-depth guide to high-impact careersRead all the articles online (or start with a two-minute summary)Listen to our podcast
