The future of work doesn't have to be an extension of today's reality.
This is the first installment in Strange New Work, a new series from What Works about imagining radically different ways of working and doing business.
In this episode, I take a closer look at speculative fiction and its role in the collective imaginary. Is science fiction all space operas and apocalyptic battles? Not hardly. Science fiction isn't really about the future. It's a commentary on and reimagining of the present.
