Are you ready for the future of work? Gigged, the critically acclaimed book shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award, takes you inside the emerging “gig economy” of Silicon Valley companies. Author Sarah Kessler tells the stories of workers, from computer programmers to online comment moderators, who navigate a new wave of precarious, short-term jobs.
This timely book explores the personal, corporate and societal stories behind a massive tech-driven shift away from permanent office employment. Gigged highlights a big divide: for people with desirable skills, the gig economy often enables a more engaging and entrepreneurial lifestyle, while for the unskilled who turn to this job out of necessity, it’s simply “the best of the bad options.”
Kessler’s well-researched and beautifully written book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the future of our economy and society. It is filled with a multitude of anecdotes supported by detailed data and reports, making it a must-read for those who want to stay ahead of the curve.
