What does the future hold for freelancing?
Posted Oct 8, 2009
A group of experts will be looking forward to the future of freelancing in a special webcast to mark National Freelancers Day.
The PCG will be hosting a webcast on Monday 23rd November in which a group of experts will examine how the freelancing model might develop within the rapidly changing business world.
The experts include Dr James Bellini (The Talent Foundation), Michael van Swaajj (Chairman of Skype), and Jon Andrews (PricewaterhouseCoopers).
The future of freelancing
Clearly, web technology has made remote working a more and more feasible option for corporations as well as individuals. In the webcast, the experts will focus on how emerging working patterns could lead to a surge in project-based working, the benefits that such a workforce brings to individual businesses of all sizes and how the economy will benefit from this much needed flexibility.
Dr James Bellini believes that the next ten years could witness one of the biggest societal shifts since the industrial revolution and the emergence of a networked society will see fundamental changes to the way people work.
Trend analysts at PwC envisage a possible scenario where companies are able to cherry-pick freelancers from a global talent pool, often in a matter of hours, gaining significant advantage over competitors still struggling with hiring talent for permanent positions. This flexibility allows companies to steal market share from more traditional players.
Michael van Swaaij will share his experiences of evolving trends in talent management and provide his recommendations for success.
