5 top things we learn from Aga to be a remarkable professional
In the first episode of the Exo Flux podcast, Aga explains her remarkable career and her work at Google. She explains how the future of wearables and how critical are Soft skills to work in a start-up or a company.
Talking with Aga, these are 5 things we learned from her to be a remarkable digital professional:
1- Focus on your weakness. It’s good for you and your career. In this episode, Aga shares with us her shyness. She focused on overcoming it. Now she is a remarkable speaker at DroidCon London, Google I/O, Google DevBytes and Grace Hopper Celebrations.
2- Soft skills are critical in professional technical careers too. The bigger the project you are working on, the greater the skills you need. Negotiations, managing people, leadership, working with start-ups are some skills professionals must have.
3- Digital professionals must learn quickly. Technology changes all the time. What you learned at University is very different than in your job. Aga, for example, has learned 5 different programming languages for her work at Google. This ability to adapt is critical.
4- The industry of wearables is more than smart watches. Smart textiles, devices, and wearable connections to the environment around people are the 3 streams will wearables evolve. A good example is the Spanish startup Sepiia. It’s a brand of intelligent clothing whose mission is to design and produce easy-care clothes that provide comfort to the user. They are part of the Startups residency Campus Madrid.
5- Wearables can help fight the obsession with screens of mobile technology addiction. They are focused on delivering the right information at the right time without giving you this constant opportunity of just streaming stuff on the Internet.
