Financial Times: The Gig Economy and the White-Collar Worker
In a Financial Times article, Andrew Edgecliffe-Johnson interviewed some top executives at a few of the world’s leading companies on how they partner with Catalant to operate with agility and accelerate mission-critical work.
A theme emerged among interviewees: they all felt the pain of not having access to the skills required to keep up with rapidly evolving market conditions. The rapid pace of innovation necessary to innovate and stay ahead of the competition compelled these business leaders to think differently about how they access talent, whether the skills and expertise they needed sat outside or inside their company.
As GE’s Chief Innovation Officer & CEO of Business Innovations Sue Siegel notes, people with the most sought-after skills aren’t always looking to work full-time for large corporations, which is precisely why GE turned to Catalant.
