How to Thrive in the COVID-19 Gig Economy?

With the impact of Covid-19 upon us the Gig economy is accelerating - don't
be left behind!
In this talk you get to practice and develop critical skills to thrive in
the Gig economy!

What do an Uber driver, a scrum master, a freelance writer and a contract
project manager / product owner have in common? The answer is that they are
potentially a part of the gig economy.

One of the fastest growing trends in employment is a move away from
full-time contracts. Instead, both employers and workers are pursuing
alternative arrangements, including temporary or project-based contracts.

It wasn't that long ago that people graduating from college or university
would go searching for a permanent position with regular pay periods,
consistent hours and employee benefits. However, the proportion of such jobs
is shrinking.

The emergence of new digital technologies has meant a shift in companies
employment strategies. They are looking to reduce their costs by hiring less
full-time staff in favor of short-term support based on immediate needs.

On the flip side, peoples' preferences regarding job structures are also
changing. Workers have realized that contracting out their services to a mix
of companies allows them flexibility in determining the amount of time they
spend working and the types of work they do.

Where the two sides meet is where we find the gig economy.

Those participating in the gig economy call themselves freelancers,
independent professionals, contract workers and independent contractors.
It's easy to think of this group as a bunch of millennials looking to escape
the traditional 9 to 5, but among those participating in the gig economy are
experienced nurses, project managers, scrum masters, agile coaches,
engineers and marketing consultants.
