This week on Techish, hosts Abadesi and Michael tackle the spicy career questions you've been asking ChatGPT but not your manager. They get into what really matters when it comes to getting promoted: performance or perception, how to choose a mentor, clout versus coin, and whether Black Excellence is pushing us forward or holding us back. And for the Patreon fam: Is it disloyal to job hunt while you're still employed? And how do you know when it's time to move on?
