The book is coming. Join the waitlist!

I joined Generalist World because of Milly’s enthusiasm for changing the narrative around being a Generalist – a cause I wanted to experience.

Milly has brought together everyone who understands being a generalist… or is looking for their home… and everyone cares and supports each other in amazing ways.

I was pretty lost. I’m not found yet, but I’ve made more progress in the last few months than the last 20 years.

Milly did that.

Having a squiggly path is a superpower!

In a world where AI can code, specialists are commoditized, and job ladders are collapsing, the most valuable people aren’t the narrow experts anymore — they’re the high-value generalists.

High-value generalists thrive in complexity, adapt faster than change itself, and become the go-to people when the brief is unclear and the stakes are high. They aren’t just employable — they’re sought-after. But becoming one doesn’t happen by accident. It’s made.

From her work supporting thousands of generlaists through career transitions, in Sought-After, Milly Tamati reveals the 5 Powers of the High-Value Generalist — the universal levers that separate the overlooked “jack of all trades” from the consistently in-demand operator.

5 things the book will teach you

Map your skills

We’ll uncover the practical, marketable abilities you already have and learn how to frame them so others instantly see their value.


Discover your strengths

We’ll dig into your natural strengths, values, and motivations, and show you how to lean on them rather than suppress them.


Create your narrative

Together, we’ll shape your professional narrative — moving from “hard to explain” to crystal clear, so you’re known for the right things.


Leverage your uniqueness

Finally, we’ll map your connections and identify the tools, systems, and resources that can multiply your impact without multiplying your effort.

Hey! I’m Milly. The human behind the book

Throughout my life, I’ve been a tour guide, a startup operator, a writer for a Japanese publication about tourism, a short film producer for women in construction, a community builder, and creator… and who knows what’s to come?

So in 2022 I posted a message on LinkedIn to see if I was alone. I was not. Hundreds of people reacted to my post, sharing their similar experiences. I then decided to create Generalist World, a community that brings together people who have diverse skills and careers.

Since then, 32,000+ people read our newsletter each week, with 75,000+ more learning from our content on socials.

My career has been squiggly and it took me WAY TOO LONG to see this for what it is: an absolute golden asset.

I’ve exchanged with hundreds of Generalists and now, I know I’m not alone, and I also know how to turn your generalism into a superpower!
