How to Succeed in the Workforce After Gr...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

This is my 2024 commencement speech at NYU Stern — one of the most important talks I’ve given.

I break down what graduating students actually need to know before entering the real world. This isn’t about hype or theory — it’s about the mindset and clarity you’ll need to succeed in a tough job market and an even tougher business landscape.

We talk about:

  • Why adversity early in your career is a good thing

  • How to stop letting other people’s opinions control your decisions

  • The problem with participation trophies and fearing failure

  • Why self-awareness and patience matter more than your resume

  • How to build a career you won’t regret at 80

If you’re a recent grad — or about to become one — this is a message you need to hear.
