Do you believe we're favorably headed that direction already? Or would it require a lot more conferences highlighting this, getting mindshare buy-in, etc?
People don't want to have meaningless jobs [1] and want jobs that make sense to them. But the other force is VC driven startups where the mantra is "Scale, scale, scale" by hiring hundreds of people - with the goal to make people rich. I do assume for more and more people money is no longer a substitue for sense though, several of my coachees want new jobs with less pay but more sense. I do believe this becoming a mega trend for the next decades (AI, 3d-printing, ... will accelerate this trend). We're at the very very beginning.
