The world of work is changing.And yet we're still managing our careers—and our businesses—like it's 1965.

* My working thesis
The 20th-century career was built for a world that no longer exists — where pensions were guaranteed, healthcare was employer-funded, and a single income could afford a middle class family a good life.
But the infrastructure of work — résumés, job boards, and dependable corporate roles — is designed for stability in an age defined by constant change and volatility.
The Next Era of Work is Already Here.
28 % of jobs across OECD countries at high risk of automation, creating urgency for reskilling, flexible roles, and diverse income sources.
In 2025, freelancers and independent contractors make up 46.6% of the global workforce—representing over 1.5 billion people worldwide. This marks a dramatic shift toward independent work models and underlines the mainstreaming of portfolio careers as a core component of the global economy,
39% of workers’ current skill sets will be transformed or made obsolete between 2025–2030.
61% of surveyed workers in a 2024 Linkedin study indicated they wanted more flexible work arrangements and formats (like portfolio careers) to be supported by their employers.
1 in 2 companies expect to drop degree requirements for key roles, prioritizing competencies, certifications, and hands-on experience instead of job titles. This means career paths are fluid, and professionals must maintain dynamic skill portfolios.
41% of companies expect to increase their use of contingent (freelancer/contract) workers in 2025, showing that nearly half of businesses are proactively adapting to, and investing in, more flexible, project-based staffing models
Work is now networked, but corporate is still hierarchical.
Talent is modular, but hiring infrastructure remains monolithic.
Working professionals want autonomy and flexibility, yet the tools of growth in work still promote control and conformity.
The future of work is portfolio shaped.
We are in the midst of a major restructuring of how labor, income, and identity intertwine.
In this new world — what I call Work 2.0 — credibility won’t necessarily come from a job title or a fancy degree anymore. Going forward, our reputation and readiness for new opportunities will unfolds in real time, in public view, across the networks and platforms where our ideas and effort are introduced to the world.
Via the portfolio of work you actively build in public.
And if that sounds idealistic, look around. A new generation of workers is already quietly reducing their dependency on the institutions that once defined their careers — not necessarily as an act of rebellion, but out of a sense of realism. (I know because i am one of these people.)
The portfolio career model is the early architecture of this movement.
It’s both a model and a metaphor—a way to rebuild our careers (and maybe our sanity!) with a little more agency, creativity, joy, and shared prosperity in the post-AI age.
But to collectively sustain ourselves going forward and make this transition smoother for all parties involved, we’ll need new infrastructure—not only business tools and operating systems—but also public policies and institutional support for this more fluid, self-directed way of working.
