The Rise of the Naked Economy
Find out what's happening in Venice-Mar Vistawith free, real-time updates from Patch.
What
happens when work is no longer a place but a state of mind: when the
trappings that have defined the economy as we knew it are stripped away
and we start from the bare essence of what it means to make a
living? From corner coffee shops to Fortune 500 companies, workers from all different backgrounds are creating a new reality and prosperity.
The Rise of the Naked Economy shows
readers how to achieve both personal and professional success in an
economy that does not guarantee lifetime employment. Pioneers Coonerty
and Neuner report from the front lines on the future of work. From the
recently graduated to the recently laid off, this book covers how the
rise in non-traditional employment calls for a new infrastructure,
strategy, and attitude for workers, companies, and communities alike.
