Скачать или смотреть The New Rules of 21st Century Passion Economy

According to Adam Davidson, co-founder of NPR’s podcast “Planet Money” and staff writer at “The New Yorker,” the middle class is not dying, robots are not stealing jobs, and the future of the economy may not be as terrifying as many believe. In fact, writes Adam Davidson, the twenty-first-century economic paradigm offers new ways of making money, fresh paths toward professional fulfillment, and unprecedented opportunities for curious, ambitious individuals to combine the things they love with their careers. Davidson is one of the leading public voices on the economy and has a different hopeful outlook. In his book “The Passion Economy” Davidson looks at what's shaping the twenty-first-century economy and its workforce and lays out the ground rules of the new financial system. Armed with these rules, we begin to see how individuals can succeed in creating thriving livelihoods in a new landscape where intimacy, insight, attention, automation, and, of course, passion are fundamental to success.

Davidson draws on the stories of average people doing exactly this—an accountant overturning his industry, a company reinventing HR to fit today’s workers, an Amish craftsman meeting the technological needs of Amish farmers—as well as the latest academic research, to better understand how the twentieth-century economy of scale has given way in this century to an economy of passion.

Join us for a conversation with Davidson to discuss his findings and how the 21st century can offer unprecedented opportunities to marry our work with our passions. Davidson will also be joined by a special guest from the employee engagement software company Humu, to demonstrate some of the rules he’s laying out.
