The Changing Landscape of Agency Work
The podcast discusses the shift in agency work from traditional in-house teams to a hybrid structure that includes contractors and fractional team members. Historically, agencies relied on full-time employees and specialists, all working together in a single location. However, with advancements in technology and the changing needs of clients, agencies have increasingly embraced a mix of full-time staff and outside experts to stay competitive.
