The gig economy gets a lot of negative press, but is it actually a bad thing? Although some think it is synonymous with income insecurity and bad management practices, in fact for many it is the way they choose to work. For professional workers who have in-demand skills, working on a gig basis rather than accepting one job can be more lucrative and give them more control of their time. For employers, using gig workers allows them the right workers to do the work they need rather than pay workers to be on staff and then assign them tasks. Good or bad though, the gig economy is here to stay and with the pandemic changing everything about the labor market, it is time to discuss what happens to it next. Guest: Marion McGovern CEO, Entrepreneur, Author  Marion McGovern is an expert in the dynamics of the independent talent market. She was the founder and CEO of M Squared Consulting, a gig economy firm before the term was even coined, and Collabrus, an employment compliance firm.  She sold both to an international conglomerate in 2005, and remained a board member through 2014.  She is the author of Thriving in the Gig...

Most independent workers are treated much differently than employees.

Examples might include coaches, consultants, Uber drivers, marketing providers and many more. If you do gigs for your clientele, there are some important facts that you need to know. Our very special guest on this episode of The Sales Chalk Talk Show is Marion McGovern, author of “Thriving in the Gig Economy” and THE go-to expert on the subject.

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Sureal Segment, The Total Tutor Neil Haley and Sara Bella will interview Gig Economy Expert Marion McGovern, Author of Thriving in the Gig Economy. So when it comes right down to it, Marion McGovern is a proud member of the Gig Economy. The short story is I have had a tremendous career in the human capital space, where I was able to grow a company, rebuild it after the tech wreck, sell it and return in an interim role. When I left the operating role, I taught business school, facilitated peer education with the CEO Alliance and developed residential real estate. I have had the tremendous opportunity to sit on several boards, both corporate and philanthropic. I often say that my career right now is like dim sum – there are a lot of plates on the table, and those plates are my gigs. So it is understandable that I am now writing my second book, Thriving in the Gig Economy. I am proud to be the founder of M Squared Consulting, an innovative human capital company I founded with a partner, Paula Reynolds, in 1988. Ironic that we created a gig economy company, before the term had ever been coined. We created a network of independent consultants and matched them to project and interim assignments. We did this, I might add, before the internet – and I know I am dating myself. The idea came to me while I was at Booz Allen and Hamilton, a prominent consulting firm. It occurred to me that a team of smart MBAs who might not know a lot about a client's business may not be the only way to achieve results; a senior individual who had actual experience in the industry or situation could offer an interesting option for companies in need of real time assistance.

My guest on the show today is Marion McGovern. Marion was the founder and CEO of M Squared Consulting, one of the first gig economy talent intermediaries before the term was even coined.  She also founded Collabrus, a company focused on independent contractor compliance.  Marion is the author of A New Brand of Expertise: How Independent Consultants, Free Agents, and Interim Managers Are Transforming the World of Work.  Her new book is Thriving in the Gig Economy. So much has changed in the world of work in the past five years. Technology firms including Uber, Airbnb, TaskRabbit and Instacart have created a new 'gig economy', which is rarely out of the headlines.  But most of the media focus is on the low end of the skill spectrum; little attention is being paid to the best-in-class professionals who have chosen an independent path.  In this episode, I chat to Marion about how the gig economy differs from the sharing economy, whether millennials fit into the gig economy differently to baby boomers, the role of the individual in this new workplace, how the gig economy can be a positive force for all involved, where best in class professionals fit in, and much more. If you enjoy our conversation, and I hope you do, please take just a minute to connect with Marion on Twitter. You can find her there at @marionmcgovern.
