In this episode I interview Deborah Perry Piscione about her latest book: ‘Employment Is Dead: How Disruptive Technologies Are Revolutionizing the Way We Work’, which she wrote together with Josh Drean.

The central theme of this book is that traditional employment models are becoming outdated due to the evolving needs and expectations of the modern workforce, facilitated by disruptive technologies.

This will lead to the end of the traditional employment model, as well as the traditional form as companies, as we know them today.

In our conversation, Deborah and I touched on the following topics:

• What is the new workforce, what do they want, and why?
• The importance of Blockchain for the future of work
• Companies that are early movers in this space
• The Gig Economy: Utopia or Dystopia
• How individuals should prepare themselves for the future of work
• Implications for our education system
• How should established companies prepare themselves
• The role HR should play in this transition
• The role for national governments
• The popularity of the book
• Final Thoughts
