We are all part of the Gig Economy

 

Author, TEDx speaker, LinkedIn expert, and creator of the 4-Step Bulletproof Your Career Methodology— Patricia Romboletti is on a mission to fundamentally change our relationship with our careers. 

Moving from a world where we ask, "what do you want to become when you grow up?" to "what kind of life do you want to live ?"   Pat affirms that we are all part of the gig economy today – that operates flexibly, despite any uncertainty, and is the new future. 

 

She points out, however, that some of us are still in denial. "That (the transition to a gig environment) is happening for others. And maybe it's happening in technology, but it's not going to happen in my industry; it's not going to happen to me."

 

Have you asked yourself: What is your path during this time of great uncertainty? Have you given the future of work some thought yet?

 

Catch Pat and me discussing the mindset, skillset, future planning, and how realizing you are a part of the Gig Economy is an essential first step.

 

Key Takeaways:

 

 Why do so many think that the trend of the Gig Economy is ride-sharing and food delivery? For one, they mostly didn't see it coming. They were programmed to keep believing it wouldn't impact them despite anything happening around them. They always think they can navigate change by just working harder. 

 

Why are employees complaining of burnout now more than ever? There are a few reasons; the first one is the extra work on their plate because employers are keen on utilizing the time saved on commute. Secondly, the "use fewer people to do more " ideology has recently strengthened. And lastly, micromanaging - Micromanagers of the past have become their worst selves since the pandemic as they cannot continually monitor how their employees have been doing. In Pat's words, "overloading happens from weaker managers who are overreacting."

 

Lessons from Pat's four-phase system to bulletproof your career:

Clarify the chaos around you. Have clarity around what you want to do and how you want your life to shape. For example, before taking action towards updating a resume on LinkedIn, think about your target for the following year.

The next step is to eliminate doubt and pursue your goal confidently.

 Prioritize the things you should be doing to make the change.

Lastly, accelerate the process.
