đď¸ The Future of Work Is Human: Why Skill Stacking and Identity Fluidity Will Determine Your Destiny | Gary Bolles
What if everything you believe about your job, your identity, and your leadership role is just a legacy illusion?
đ EPISODE SUMMARY:
What does it mean to be ready for the future of work?
In this episode of The Dov Baron Show, Dov is joined by Gary A. Bolles, renowned futurist, co-founder of eParachute, and author of The Next Rules of Work.
.
Gary has taught over 1.7 million learners on LinkedIn and served as Global Chair for the Future of Work at Singularity University.
But this conversation goes beyond âthe future of work.â
Itâs a gut-punch to outdated ideas of career identity, hierarchical leadership, and linear success.
.
Dov and Gary dive into why work is no longer a place you goâit's an evolving ecosystem of identities, skills, and meaning. Together, they challenge leaders to abandon static job titles, embrace skill-stacking, and prepare for a world where the pace of change will never be this slow again.
.
If you're a leader, parent, policymakerâor just a human being wondering what your role is in this accelerating world, this episode is not just a wake-up call. It's your tactical playbook for relevance, reinvention, and regenerative leadership.
đĽ What Youâll Learn:
Why the most dangerous word in your company might be âjobâ
The three curves of transformation shaping the new world of workâand where youâre stuck
How skill-stacking and "identity fluidity" will determine your adaptability and impact
Why careers must shift from âcareer laddersâ to career swarms
How to lead when your title is irrelevant, your team is global, and your edge is emotional intelligence
The reason Gen Z is not disengaged, theyâre disillusioned
What AI canât replace: your ability to navigate ambiguity, creativity, and human connection
How to future-proof your children and grandchildren for a world thatâs being rewritten in real time
The difference between human capital and human potentialâand why most organizations get it wrong
Why the question of identity must evolve: "I am not my jobâI am the work I choose to do now."
đĽ Truth Bomb:
âWhen you define yourself by a single job, you limit your ability to adapt, evolve, and contribute.â ~ Gary Bolles
