Episode 4 - Balancing Your Career & Your Passion with Guest Patrick Cleary

In this week's episode, I speak with Patrick about how he has found the right balance for him between career and side passions.  He has found a home in Knowledge Management for over twenty years, but always finds ways to support his love of the arts and theatre by working on shows or his own creative endeavors "on the side".  Patrick learned early on that he lost a lot of the fun and love for the arts if it was also his job.  He talks about the evolution of the KM industry and how that continues to challenge him in his career.  And how he finds a lot of opportunities to participate in the arts on nights and weekends.  For him, it's the perfect balance so he never feels stuck!
