We travelled the world to learn about the Future of Work. And we learned a lot! We want to share the highlights from our US panel sessions with you and the rest of the world. For the panels we got together thirteen world class thinkers within the field of work. In the movie each panelist reflects on the theme. Thank you Stowe Boyd for helping us put together the tour and moderate the panels.
What is your take on the Future of Work? let everyone know in the comments.
The panelists are covering many themes realted to the future of work. The adoption of social tools in the enterprise, the challenge of working from many locations, how the workplace is becomming ‘a thing you do rather than a place you go’, learning in networked organisations, peer recognition and game dynamics for motivation, distributed leadership, the cultural legacy of control and hierarchy, the follow your curiosity industry model, the open follower model for collaboration, the increasing merger of work and leisure time, and how social tools support cultural shifts towards more openness.
Thanks to Brantley Jones, for following us around the US and for putting together this video. Brantley has to be one of the most reflective, well articulated and funny guys in the movie industry. Good luck with your upcoming movie.

Great video! Love thinking about how Wikipedia and Linux were developed without a leader.

The line about work being ‘a thing you do rather than a place you go’ really resounded with me. The support team at my workplace largely operates remotely – which has a lot of practical benefits (ie. we can provide around-the-clock support to customers and flexible conditions to coworkers), however, also presents challenges. We’ve addressed challenges like isolation (lack of openness) through the use of collaborative tools in our company (http://www.campaignmonitor.com/blog/post/3121/secrets-of-distributed-team/) and would love to hear other perspectives, too. That said, I don’t think we can write off the value of working face-to-face in an office environment, just yet.
