The Founders' List: The New Generation of Labor Marketplaces and the Future of Work
In this episode, Pete Flint delves into the shifting landscape of the labor market, the rise of the talent economy, and the future of labor marketplaces. He explores topics such as verticalization, transaction ownership, job tenure and scarcity, reskilling, upskilling, and success factors for building labor marketplaces. He also discusses the transformative potential of labor marketplaces during a crisis and the current climate for building them.
This is The Founders’ List – audio versions of essays from technology’s most important leaders, selected by the founder community.
When the economy eventually normalizes, demand for labor will recover, and work will recover, but the shifts in supply and demand will result in a new and sizable set of unmet market needs for job placement.
Online marketplaces will be a critical tool in getting people back to work quickly, efficiently, and at scale. They will also enable new ways for people to build the skills they need to succeed, and for them to work in an increasingly remote and distributed fashion.
Listen to Pete Flint's essay on the 4 trends in the next generation of online labor marketplaces, including greater complexity, improved experience, tech-enabled labor, and re-skilling and upskilling.
