GBD143. The Gig Economy. What Is It?

"It addresses fundamental questions about whether it's killing
the way we work... or actually creating a world of new
possibilities."


What's your company's strategy to develop and maximise
the resources provided by what some call the
"alternative workforce", but most simply refer
to as "gig" workers? Board-level strategist and integrated
thinker Samantha Griffiths (BSc (Hons), MBA,
FCCA) of Sagenius joins in from her base in Birmingham, UK. Sam
started her career in a large international bank and transitioned
to a role in the Treasury for a large multinational engineering
business before working for several years at the London Stock
Exchange. She talked to AICPA & CIMA's Sandeep Rao shortly
before the end of 2020.
