The document discusses career choices for those in their 30s working in IT leadership roles. It notes that this generation has no precedent or models to follow. The presentation focuses on the real meaning of leadership and choices about one's career over the next 30 years, including choices around career vs job, technologies, management vs individual contributor, skills, career horizon, self-employment, work-life balance, retirement, and maintaining motivation, reputation and network. It encourages thinking about these choices as career branches like a tree.

1. Where will the yellow bricks take you?
Careers are decisions
There's a generation of us in IT around our 30s doing
leadership jobs usually reserved for older men and
women. We have no models, there is no precedent in
our country, our industry.
A talk about the real meaning of
leadership and the choices we
have in front of us.
Where will we be in 30 years?
