Welcome to foHRsight – a podcast about making work better brought to you by future foHRward.
In this week’s episode, Naomi has the opportunity to chat with former future foHRward conference keynote speaker, Gary A. Bolles. Gary is author of "The Next Rules of Work", Chair for the Future of Work, Singularity University and Co-founder, eParachute.com.
In this far-ranging conversation, Gary shares his perspective about trends or threats (he doesn’t like the term predictions!), what he calls the WorkNet (what we call the worker ecosystem), the important roles of leaders (or what he prefers to call the Team Guide) and shares some examples of organizations who are adopting these new ways of working.
He also explores the impact of exponential change when it comes to changes like AI and how we should be thinking about it as a tool – not a partner or a work colleague – and he also has an interesting analogy for black swan events.
You can get access to all of Gary’s writing including the LinkedIn Learning courses he mentioned here - https://www.gbolles.com/.
