It’s very interesting that you’re working on something specifically about bridging disciplines! I’ll drop you a line soon and we can continue the discussion, if you like.

I came across your blog, and Hunter’s, whilst doing some background reading for something. I’m writing a guidance document for staff at a company I run, trying to help them with time management but also to prepare them for the inevitable ‘jack of all trades’ discussions they will face.

The company is a consultancy, and all of the staff are ‘significantly competent’ in more than one field. Most of the work the business undertakes relies on their ability to bridge disciplines.

I just thought I’d post something on here to say that your blog shows some really interesting lines of thinking!

I’d be interested in your thoughts about this document I’m writing, perhaps you could email me if you have some time.

Keep up the good writing,

James.

Thanks for dropping by! The link is now fixed, sorry about that.

I’m actually finding quite a lot more discussion popping up in defense of polymaths and generalists, perhaps it’s also because I’ve only really begun to look recently.

There are plenty of discussions we still need to have about where we can be most effective given our skills, I’m looking forward to following the conversation on your blog!

Thanks for linking to my post, but please double-check the URL – the link doesn’t work.
