The Great Thinning Out Of The Traditional Firm - Issue #71

  • Resumen

  • This week, in issue #71 of the TalentStories newsletter, “The Great Thinning Out of the Traditional Firm”, a visit to the city of San Francisco is cause to explore the massive dispersion happening at work. San Francisco happens to be on the cutting edge of work so you feel, acutely, the decentralizing effects of the pandemic, of shifting work norms, and of a decade of technological change. 

    But here's the thing: it's not just employees who are decentralizing; who are leaving this city, and leaving bigger firms. The firms themselves are consciously and unconsciously thinning themselves out.

    Today, our stories explore how and why. And taken together, they also prompt us to ask: if the supply of workers continues to shrink -- to decentralize, if not opt out of traditional work altogether -- and if technology simultaneously causes firms to reduce demand for talent by becoming smaller over time, what happens to the traditional firm, and the labor market? In other words, what happens to work itself?
