If you havenโt read ๐๐ Ollie Hendersonโs Future Work/Life you should. Excellent.
This particular quote reminds me of something that Jason Fried wrote in one of his books ..
New technologies tend to imitate the old until people figure out what theyโre really meant to do. Early websites were brochures. Early cars looked like horse-drawn carriages. Early TV shows were radio shows with pictures.

So too work. We โbrokeโ work about 5 years ago - but slowly people (Corporates) are โfixing itโ (As in making us all go back to our old ways.) This is because they are still looking at work through the lens of the brochure/horseless carriage. It will be a while before we break it again - BUT - it will be broken but only once we have truly unpacked how the new world of work works.
Iโve got ideas. Iโve got people. Iโm excited for the future.
