#250 Work3 Institute Co-Founder Josh Drean: Employment is Dead. Now What? — Part One

Part One of a 3-part series on Josh Drean. Josh has worn many hats—Harvard MBA, psychology grad, co-founder of Work3 Institute and now, co-author of Employment is Dead (Harvard Business Review Press). We’re kicking off 2025 with a bang—by declaring employment dead. Yes, you read that right. Josh Drean is here to dismantle the traditional job market, toss outdated HR policies into the digital abyss, and redefine what it means to work in the modern world. This is Part 1 of a three-part series with Josh, where we dig into why the corporate world’s obsession with employee engagement surveys is as effective as asking your toaster for career advice. Spoiler alert: Most companies don’t actually want honest feedback from employees. Stay tuned for Part 2 , where we take the conversation even deeper into the new rules of work. Key Highlights of Our Interview: Why “people are our greatest asset” is corporate gaslighting – If people were really assets, why are they still an expense on the balance sheet? The future is flexible, but companies are stuck in the past – Why forcing employees back to the office is like making them commute to a typewriter factory. _________________________ Connect with us: Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Josh Drean _________________________ --Chief Change Officer-- Change Ambitiously.
