We like to think we're capable of just about anything. This reflects especially strongly in our careers. Some gain expertise in a particular niche. Others gain a breadth of knowledge. Both generalists and specialists are needed in an increasingly complex technological society. Yet a gap remains in connecting the generalist and the specialist in a way removed from any bias or ego. This gap presents a tremendous opportunity for any group or individual who can solve it effectively.
