More and more are going solos, realizing that they don’t want to be slaves for others, and that working by yourself is more lucrative and fun than working to make someone else rich.

Contract project management is on the rise (project managers working as freelancers), and this trend is for the long term.

Like you, I see these shifts as positive and empowering for individuals. We’re moving toward a society where passions and expertise can be better aligned to workplace structures. As long as we consider the proper support and safety nets for both workers and companies, this can only be a good thing.

Here in the UK we are only starting to see signs of it but those of us at the coal face are having a lot of fun and undoubtedly delivering tangible results that make a real difference. Power to your elbow. Good to see some recognition of the trend State side.
