Are you looking for flexibility, more variety in the skills you use, independence from office politics and the ability to shift your work as the demands of your life change?
If so, working in the gig economy by creating a portfolio career might be the answer. Instead of working a traditional full-time job, portfolio careers allow you to work multiple “gigs” made up of a combination of project work, contract work, part-time work and self-employment. Since 50% of jobs in the future will be of a gig nature (depending on industry), learning how you can become part of this new economy is a critical skill to have. Ingrid Goldbloom Bloch, Director of Talent Advancement of AAFCPAs, and founder of Mosaic Careers, will share real world examples of people working in the gig economy. She will share the benefits and pitfalls of this new work arrangement and give you strategies to start building your own portfolio of work.
