Welcome to a special episode of Deep Dive into The Never Normal, a Geeks, Geezers, and Googlization special no-nonsense series that unpacks the future of work, leadership, and life in an era of relentless disruption. This episode features highlights from cutting-edge insights by future or work thought leaders Josh Drean, who declares that "Employment is Dead," and John Sanei, author of the upcoming book Future Memories, who explores why we must unlearn everything we know to embrace an uncertain future. I also introduce the latest research from McKinsey’s ‘Developing a Resilient, Adaptable Workforce for an Uncertain Future,’ revealing why only 23% of employees feel prepared for what’s next—and why only 16% of organizations are doing something about it! Something needs to change.

In the full episodes (links below), you can listen or watch as Josh and Sanei dive into tough questions like this: Are traditional employment models obsolete? How can leaders build psychological safety in a world that never stops changing? And what happens when innovation isn't enough, and disruption is the only way forward?
