Welcome to episode number two of the „What to Watch, Read + Listen“ (WTWRL) podcast. Today’s episode focusses on the topics of future and new work. New work been a really hot topic in my English coaching sessions recently that my corporate clients want – and need – to talk about since they are confronted with new work topics on a daily basis. The problem for them and also for me and for the podcast episode that I had planned is:
The topic of new work is really hard to grasp, difficult to understand and almost impossible to define. What exactly is new work? What is it that should we talk about? Is it Design Thinking, Agility, WOL, Lean Management, Scrum, VUCA? Each of these buzz words could be the topic for a stand-alone podcast episode!
The One About The Future And New Work
I decided to take a step back and to adopt a broader, more general perspective. And that’s why today I will look into the general future – our future and the trends that look like they are going to shape our future. And yes, this means that we will also look into the future of work!
You can now listen and subscribe to the podcast here on my website and on iTunes or your favorite podcast apps such as Overcast.
Have fun and enjoy the show!
