Praise for The Future of Work
“There is zero obfuscation in The Future of Work. Jacob maps out precisely how organizations must adapt going forward, while inspiring employees and managers to do their best.”
—Don Tapscott, bestselling author of 15 books, most recently Macrowikinomics
“Jacob's book is invaluable for organizations striving to provide effective environments for tomorrow's workforce. People are much more self-directed and self-motivated at work, and technology continues to enable our ability to interact, connect, and communicate. As a result, successful companies will understand the growing role for managers to become leaders and will learn how to leverage the ‘freelancer economy,’ where skilled individuals come together to complete projects and then move on to the next. Companies that understand how to create an environment where teams dynamically assemble, both internally and externally, will not only attract superior talent, but will also be in an excellent position to innovate.”
—Stephen Hoover, CEO of PARC
“Jacob's book shows why and how the future of work compels a commitment to create a new type of organization.”
—Peter Guber, CEO Mandalay Entertainment Group, New York Times bestselling author of Tell to Win, owner of the Golden State Warriors, and co-owner of the LA Dodgers
“The world of work is changing and many organizations are struggling to adapt. In The Future of Work, Jacob has outlined what organizations can do to remain relevant and competitive.”
