Why we're so anxious about the future of work | Carla Cuglietta | TEDxRRU

Carla Cuglietta went on an 18-month journey across fifteen countries to explore how we can better prepare for the rapidly evolving future of work. As a former high school teacher, Carla was motivated by two pivotal questions: Why has our anticipation for the future of work shifted from excitement to anxiety? And why should we accept this as the new norm? In this talk, Carla shares her practical insights that guide us toward a confident and proactive approach to the future of work.
