An in-depth look at how, why, and for whom work has radically changed. The gold watch days are over. The relationship between employers and employees has changed forever. How did we get here? After the great recession, corporate America has lost its luster as a safe place to spend your days collecting a paycheck and steady benefits.We are moving away from a full time workforce and skill requirements to multiple workforces and technologies defining delivery. The old style hierarchical leadership is on its way out, along with big mahogany desks and side bar of scotch. In Death of the Gold Watch; Terri Gallagher, a vanguard on the gig workforce and its impact to organizations will discuss what has changed and how organizations need to change the way they think about workforce strategy and talent acquisition. Not only from an operational perspective but at the human level. The old paradigm of top down, command and control leadership is no longer relevant. It's about the individual today; how to engage, inspire and accommodate flexible work structures, engaging and interesting work, in a dynamic environment.
