Description
"THRIVE IN THE FUTURE OF WORK" provides a journey through the realities, implications and solutions for the rapidly changing world of work we live in today. It is a practical account of what we know so far from those who have been there - and both a guide and an invitation for you to explore what your path will be towards Future of Work readiness and fulfilment. Each chapter provides case studies, research, tools and prompts to help you address the question of what you can do in practical terms to help future-proof your career and your organisation in the changing world of work. Part 1: The Changing World of Work explores what the Future of Work means in practical terms and how can it be broken down at individual and organisational level. Part 2: Personal Agility focuses on Future of Work readiness and Agility at the individual level. Part 3: Shaping the Future Ready Organisation explores the practical realities and implications of the Future of Work at the wider organisational level. Part 4: A Call to Action for the Future touches on current thinking in terms of wider policy and societal choices concerning how we approach the Future of Work - and transition from a mainly 20th century mindset and model or work.
