The Shift – Lynda Gratton, 2011

This is our 'go-to' book choice when anyone ever asks us about further reading around the future of work.  

Professor Gratton teaches at London Business School and is one of the world’s leading experts on the subject.  She succinctly nails the various aspects of the future of work, showcasing the topic as multiple themes in convergence, and not just this year’s hot potato of innovation in automation and AI.  

She also shows us the very likely societal impact of the future of work and gives illustrations of how we might future-proof ourselves to adapt to an altogether different work landscape of the future.
