Up For Success In The Gig Economy: 13 Steps To Turn Your Life Into A Series Of Successful Gigs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798509303838)

We now live in the gig economy. It is a micro-economy. The word Gig actually came from a slang word for a live musical performance, recording session, or other engagement of a musician or ensemble which has a defined start and end, and is superb. This term was originally coined by jazz musicians in the 1920s, and it has now come to mean an "engagement" or stint. An economy is a large set of inter-related production and consumption activities that help determine how scarce resources are allocated. When you put these two words together, you get the gig economy. The gig economy is defined as a labor market characterized by the prevalence of short-term contracts or freelance work as opposed to permanent jobs. Gig workers are independent contractors, online platform workers, contract firm workers, on-call workers, and temporary workers. In other words, gig workers behave much more like entrepreneurs than employees! An entrepreneur is a person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit. That is exactly what gig workers are. And that is what our new world is fast changing to! Every person should have an entrepreneurial side gig because employment cannot be guaranteed, and the world is fast changing with automation rendering certain job professions obsolete!
