In this episode, we're joined by Nate Thompson and Alex Schwartz, the hosts of The Disruptive Workforce Podcast, currently ranked in the top 3% of over 3 million podcasts worldwide. Continuing our conversation from Episode 30 with Bob Hobbi, we delve into the significant disruptions the workforce has encountered over the past 4-5 years, spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic and the rapid evolution of technology. Nate and Alex share their insights on how organizations are grappling with these workforce challenges and offer guidance on navigating through them. Our discussion spans a range of topics including organizational culture, leadership, artificial intelligence, adapting to technological advancements, and harnessing the opportunities presented by these changes in today's workforce.

About Nate and Alex

Nate Thompson and Alex Schwartz are the co-founders of The Disrupted Workforce (TDW). They launched TDW during the pandemic to help leaders and professionals prepare, navigate, and thrive through the most digital and disrupted workforce in human history.

But their passion for The Future Of Work began almost seven years prior when Nate was building the first Future of Work programs in Asset Management, and Alex was selling Digital Transformation projects in consulting.

Their compelling WHY is simple. “We lived through a global pandemic running the largest remote and hybrid work experiment in the history of humanity. The AI Era has begun; more than 300 million jobs will be impacted, and over a billion people must be upskilled by 2030. Work, identity, purpose, and what it means to be human are rapidly changing for everyone. Yet, many leaders and professionals aren’t ready, and most companies don’t have a way to deliver on this need. We can’t go back to the old playbook. It’s time to Explore, Expand, and Evolve!”

They knew this challenge was far bigger than them or their company. So they started with two powerful questions: “Everyone needs these insights. How might we help leaders and professionals at scale? What if we start a free conversation with the Top Voices In The Future of Work and invite everyone?” Those beautiful questions led to the creation of their podcast (available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and all platforms), now globally ranked in the top 3% of over 3 million podcasts.
