Last weekend I attended GigConnect 1.0 by @gigbanc and it was an eye-opener in every sense. The speakers, the sessions, the networking, everything was just perfect. One of the highlights for me was getting to speak with Mr Adebola Afolabi I asked him a question that I believe many people in tech can relate to “Should I continue being a Jack of all trades, learning multiple skills, or should I focus on just one and master it deeply?” He gave such a thoughtful response that really shifted how I see growth. But that wasn’t all. Every speaker at GigConnect 1.0 brought something insightful One speaker talked about personal branding not just logos or colors, but how we present ourselves, how we speak, and how we show up, our social media presence and concentrating on a couple of social media platforms instead of trying to be everywhere Another speaker emphasized the importance of embracing AI how it’s no longer the future but the present, and we need to learn to use it smartly in everything we do. I also learned how to approach job hunting differently not just the usual Fiverr or Upwork routes, but through other freelance platforms that most people don’t even know about. One major point that stuck with me was about knowing when to leave a job. When your work no longer challenges you, when every day feels like a repeat, when there’s no excitement or motivation that’s when it’s time to move on. Another speaker talked about how no matter how skilled you are, always stay humble and respectful. Especially here in Africa, people value respect even more than talent and it often opens doors your skills alone can’t. Every conversation, every moment at GigConnect 1.0 was amazing
