Azeem Azhar's Exponential View

Technology and the New World of Work

Listen Later

The nature of work is undergoing tremendous changes, influenced by aging populations, the digital revolution, and a paradigm shift away from Fordism. Laetitia Vitaud, author of “Du Labeur à l’ouvrage (From Labour to Work),” and Azeem Azhar discuss how the reinvention of craftsmanship is creating a new deal to ensure more equitable, sustainable, and fulfilling jobs.

In this podcast, they also discuss:

  • How Silicon Valley is bringing back the values of craftsmanship.
  • What the single most important skill in the new world of work is.
  • Why the jobs of tomorrow will largely be in proximity services.

    • Further reading:

    • “The future of work is in proximity services… But first we need to speak about work and gender” (Medium, Laetitia Vitaud, Oct. 24, 2019)

    • “Bubbles, Golden Ages, and Tech Revolutions” (Exponential View episode featuring Carlota Perez, Oct. 16, 2019)
