The “Gig” Isn’t Up for James
Maddock
James Maddock, Head of EMEA, GOS, hit the road
to talk all things “Gig Economy.” Spanning over a
period of six months covering the UK, Australia,
Czech Republic and Amsterdam, James presented
to clients and colleagues on the new sharing
economy shaping the future of work. As the role of
smart machines, robotics, and artificial intelligence
grow and more temporary jobs are created, it
is not only ‘digital disruptors’ adopting these
‘gig’ workers (often referred to as consultants,
contractors, freelancers or temp workers), there
are a multitude of industries
embracing this fast growing
‘Gig Economy’ which is
comprised of 20-30% of the
working population.
