There’s a “critical minimum” amount of time that you must spend practising your craft in order to become a genius at it.
10,000 hours, to be exact. Or roughly 10 years of dedicated practice.
In his book Range, David Epstein argues that having a broad spectrum of skills and interests, and taking your time to figure them out is better than specialising in just one area.
So being a generalist AND a specialist is key.
Welcome to the T-Shaped Marketer 2022 - and the latest T-Shaped Skills.

A report entitled “The Hybrid Job Economy” by Burning Glass, who analyse billions of job postings and resumes from millions of companies
Found that high-paying jobs of the future are more complex, multi-disciplinary, and what they call “hybrid”.
In other words, they are specialist roles but they also require a wide set of skills from different fields.
Sounds familiar right?
This is what we call a T Shaped skills profile.
Marketers are perfect examples of T shaped professionals.
With a wide range of skills to learn, as well as the need to specialise and hone in on a couple of areas.
We updated our T Shaped marketer profile for 2022, by surveying growth and marketing leaders on what they consider the top skills.
On the base layer, are the non-marketing specific subjects that form the foundation for the rest.
Here we have the Growth Mindset, Data Analytics, Strategic Planning, Problem Solving and Behavioural Psychology.
Next, you have your marketing foundation skills - which can be used across all marketing channels.
Including Rapid experimentation, Automation & APIs, Attribution Modelling, Product Marketing & Copywriting.
Finally, you have your channel expertise layer, which includes your vertical core expertise on a couple of channels.
For example, we have Conversion Rate Optimisation, A/B Testing, SEO, SEM, Email Marketing, Growth Loops, Social Media Marketing, Paid Social Advertising, Retention & Loyalty and Referral Marketing.
