Gary A. Bolles is Chair for the Future of Work at Singularity University, co-founder of eParachute.com, and Author of “The Next Rules of Work: The Mindset, Skillset and Toolset to Lead Your Organization through Uncertainty”. After a first interview in April 2020, Gary returns to the show to report on how he sees the Future of Work progressing and our ongoing adjustments for it. He shares insights about important work trends, mindsets, behaviors, and balance. Gary describes how concurrent waves of old work rules, transitional models, and the next rules of work are impacting leaders and our multigenerational workforce with its shifting weighting of employees and non-employees.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   [02:20] Revisiting our first podcast discussion at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, Gary recalls his article about the Great Reset.   [03:54] The helpful visual of multiple waves to understand the evolution of work.   [05:10] Some leaders have bungeed back to old rules of work while others have embraced new rules and operating systems.   [07:02] The effect of perceived incentives and disincentives on changing habits and rules.   [08:05] How to benefit from pandemic learnings and accept the messiness of adapting new practices.   [10:50] Zooming out to shift your mindset about how to solve problems across your ecosystem.   [11:36] Imagining leading without ego and with trust in order to alter leaders' approaches.   [14:53] How media's mischaracterizations don't help as three waves of work try to co-exist.   [15:32] The inevitable trend of continuous co-creation which young people especially seem to embrace.   [16:30] The power dynamic had tilted towards employers which flexible work is rebalancing to some degree.   [18:29] Picture ourselves as icebergs. We employ entire people, not just the tip of the iceberg which we recruit.   [19:32] In the new era of work, leaders are responsible for workers, their lives, and communities.   [21:43] Sophie anticipates smaller core employee groups and more non-employee workers in future.   [22:50] Future employee “agency” achieved through a “worknet” - a flexible flow of talent with varying degrees of organization membership.     [24:05] How to help increase degrees of membership in your company, enable people to feel connected, co-create effectively, and be rewarded.   [25:00] Cybersecurity provides a similar framework for the worknet model.   [27:00] Using words and concepts that reflect people's sentiments and realities helps us reach balanced understanding and outcomes.   [29:10] Aren't young employees manifesting the Future of Work rather than disrupting work norms?   [30:15] How young people are responding to new market signals as new work practices endure.   [32:09] Why older leaders are bereft at Gen Z's behaviors and miss the opportunity of co-creation.   [33:23] Why aren't younger employees' deciding their careers now, and other related outcomes?   [34:45] How the precarity of the world is driving youth to hedge their bets with a portfolio strategy.   [35:32] Looking at the three stages of life horizontally not vertically (sequentially) as proposed by Gary's father who wrote “What Color is Your Parachute?”   [36:47] Parents ask “Why won't my kid get a real job?” It's a hedge strategy. It's ensuring optionality.   [39:00] How culture can be a journey, defined by a mindset and behaviors that are reinforced.   [41:30] What is the process and ongoing actions that empower agency and co-creation?   [43:46] Gary defines empathy as lived experiences. He focuses on caring for coworkers.   [47:19] The sea change ahead as more capable tools come online.   [48:08] Work involving synthesis is greatly enhanced by AI-boosted tools.   [49:46] Leaders need to focus on helping workers be upskilled and utilize the tools to solve current problems.   [51:18] Starting with a growth (vs fixed) mindset and focusing on flex (or soft) skills for today's business needs.   [52:15] Companies must invest in training employees as education systems are still biased towards teaching bodies of knowledge, not flexible skills that augment interactions and social situations.   [55:40] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: Reframe managers and supervisors as team guides. Rethink the process, what their role is, and how you can help them to guide teams throughout your organization, “un-boss” meetings, and be there to remove roadblocks so team members can co-create solutions.   RESOURCES   Gary Bolles on LinkedIn Gary Bolles on Twitter @gbolles Gary's book “The Next Rules of Work: The Mindset, Skillset and Toolset to Lead Your Organization through Uncertainty” Gary's website eparachute.com Carol Dweck's book Mindset: Changing the Way You Think to Fulfil Your Potential QUOTES (edited)   “We're pattern recognizers, we're general-purpose problem-solving machines.”   “I think that's actually a failure on our part, wasting a perfectly good pandemic. We showed that we can trust. We showed that we can imbue teams with the power to be able to decide when and where and with whom and how they work. And then we took it away from them.”   “We're going to find that once you've given people agency and some level of autonomy, they don't want to give it back. And I think that's a perfectly reasonable request.”   “Along comes a pandemic, and suddenly you and I are looking into each other's homes on Zoom calls. And we realize: that's a whole person and if I'm an employer I have to be responsible for their physical health, their mental health, their emotional health, the whole person. And that's not what I signed up for in the old rules of work!”   “I don't hear a lot of workers complain to me that they're not engaged. That's not the way that a worker would say it. A worker would typically say ‘I want to feel motivated by my work', ‘I want to feel like I have meaning in my work', ‘I want to feel well compensated', ‘I want to feel recognized.'”   “Gen Z was born around 9/11. They were children through the global recession and young adults in a global pandemic, on a planet on fire. There aren't a lot of other generations that have had that sequence of precarity.”   “In a world of almost complete uncertainty, there are no safe jobs.”   “Why are you waiting to enjoy life until retirement? Does that make any sense in a world on fire? No. We're going to do it now.”   “We keep thinking “Just shove more bodies of knowledge into those little heads”. And that's not the way the world is working. The shelf life of that information, of those skills, is decaying so rapidly.  We have to explicitly teach these much more flexible skills and then employers have to demand them.”

Bolles. Gary is author of "The Next Rules of Work", Chair for the Future of Work, Singularity University and Co-founder, eParachute.com.In this far-ranging conversation, Gary shares his perspective about trends or threats (he doesn't like the term predictions!), what he calls the WorkNet (what we call the worker ecosystem), the important roles of leaders (or what he prefers to call the Team Guide) and shares some examples of organizations who are adopting these new ways of working.He also explores the impact of exponential change when it comes to changes like AI and how we should be thinking about it as a tool – not a partner or a work colleague – and he also has an interesting analogy for black swan events.You can get access to all of Gary's writing including the LinkedIn Learning courses he mentioned here - https://www.gbolles.com/.Quick reminderDon't forget to sign up for our weekly newsletter foHRsight at www.futurefoHRward.com/foHRsight.Follow us on LinkedIn:Mark - www.linkedin.com/in/markedgarhr/Naomi - www.linkedin.com/in/naomititlemancolla/future foHRward - www.linkedin.com/company/future-fohrward/And on Instagram - www.instagram.com/futurefohrward/And finally big shout out to our Producer Emily Milling at The Ultimate Creative for making us sound great!

“Change management is dead. It’s all about managing change.” – Gary Bolles In this episode of OneTAKE Live, join host Ian Barkin as he discusses the future of work, technology and organizational innovation with Gary Bolles, chair for the Future of Work at Singularity University, partner at Charrette and co-founder of eParachute, Inc. Change is coming. It’s coming fast. Before COVID-19, change was approaching in the form of digitization and automation. Today? Social distancing is changing the way industry looks at remote work, centralization and even workforce management. Industry moves quickly — and agility is everything. With the future of work ever-changing, how can businesses position themselves as catalysts for proactive change? Thankfully, Gary Bolles is a change expert. To him, it doesn’t matter if it’s a virus, automation, artificial intelligence (AI) or otherwise — it all starts with the right organizational mindset. “What we need is a completely new way of thinking that can channel human energy effectively. … Leaders should define where the organization goes, but not necessarily how it gets there,” Bolles explains. According to him, organizations must nimbly converge as one network of work — or “NetWork”— to adapt to the ever-evolving needs of the marketplace. While Gary isn’t a futurist, he does consider himself a “possible-ist.” As the chair for the Future of Work at Singularity University, Bolles teaches the next generation of leaders, catalysts and gamechangers what’s possible through his engaging writing and insightful lectures. In addition to his work with SU, Gary also co-founded eParachute, Inc., based on his father’s prolific book What Color Is Your Parachute?, where he empowers individuals to chart their course through the world of work. Join us to hear all about the future of work and learning on OneTAKE Live! Episode ResourcesGary A.

Global disruption has created the opportunity for a Great Reset. Gary A. Bolles, Chair for the Future of Work at Singularity University and Co-Founder of eParachute.com, believes we can redesign our business systems to be optimized to help people learn needed and evolving skill sets and develop agency. For individuals, he explains the new rules of work require constant self-inventory, experimenting to match skills, needs, and interests, and the benefits of identifying a personal Northstar.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   [03:18] The Future of Work is an evolution to a digital work economy.   [03:55] The impact of automation is supposed to both increase human’s capacity to create things and solve problems, but it also impacts human work.   [04:33] Automation is channeling human energies to be able to solve problems in completely new ways   [06:14] Disruptive technologies change the way that industries function and then the roles of workers in those industries.   [07:17] The internet evaporates the middle.   [08:19] There's two things that are different now, the pace of change and the spread of change.   [09:22] Every individual needs four skills-- P.A.C.E: to be Problem solvers who are Adaptive, Creative, and with Empathy—to help create agency.   [13:43] The least advantaged are the ones that are the most disadvantaged in terms of- of being remote.   [14:51] We can try to design the things that we want to have happen, but nobody can actually predict really what the next 12, 18 months is going to hold.   [16:02] The more command-and-control, the more highly-structured organizations were the least adaptable.   [16:22] The organizations the pushed decision-making down to the team level have done the best.   [18:48] Organizations that really understand their purpose are going to be the best prepared for tomorrow.    [20:18] The great reset involves a changing landscape of rules and norms.   [20:44] What are the rules across the ecosystem?   [21:16] What is the best way to create value for my customers?   [21:51] The constantly changing landscape means that we all have to have much better sensor network and be continually adaptive.   [23:03] The landscape of the future of work distilled down into four domains: individuals, organizations, communities, and countries.   [25:08] Creating incentives to ensure people remain employed   [26:22] Why we need systems that are optimized to help people find meaningful work.   [26:56] Why we need to help people have P.A.C.E. and agency.   [27:47] It will require massive investments in helping humans gather the new information and learn the basic digital toolkit   [28:45] The largest game of employment musical chairs in the history of the world.   [29:16] What are the roles of government and the private sector in making necessary changes?   [30:17] It's critical is to have the tool set--understand your own unique skills and interests, and experiences—and have your own agency.   [31:15] Schools must think of themselves as lifelong learning platforms.   [32:07] Industries must send stronger signals about what they're hiring for now.   [32:42] If you're not training the workers of tomorrow, we will simply not have the workforce that we need.   [33:40] You can impact the system, if you hire somebody with a non-standard background   [37:55] if there's one major takeaway to have empathy for so many others that are going through this process   [39:06] With the new rules of work, you- you have to do constant self-inventory.   [39:20] Keep on experimenting and trying different techniques--you've got to go find or create that work.   [40:12] Most important for people is to have a Northstar--a directional goal that you are working towards.   [42:49] IMMEDIATE TIP ACTION: The three key characteristics of leadership now are Competence, Compassion, and Courage.   RESOURCES   The future is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed”-- Bruce Sterling   ‘Big Shift: Measuring the Forces of Change’ – John Hagel   The Inside Gig – Edie Goldberg and Kelley-Steven-Waiss   SkyHive   Faethm     QUOTES   “The internet evaporates the middle.”   “We all need to be problem solvers who are adaptive, creative and with empathy.”   "Teams are going to be much more problem centric”   “We don't have a health care system, we have a sick care system…We don't have an employment system. We have an unemployment system.”   “One thing we can predict is that the market asymmetry is going to be biblical.”   “Schools must think of themselves as lifelong learning platforms.”   "If you're not training the workers of tomorrow, we will simply not have the workforce that we need."
