Re: Four Trends in Digital Transformation

Hi Elif, the book is available in hardcover, digital, and audio. However, even if the book was only available in hardcover I'm not sure how this would contradict anything. When authors work with major publishers it's not the authors who have a say in distribution, it's the publishers.

Sure you can call it what you want :) I'm less worried about the name vs the concept and what it means/how it works. Sure, doesn't sound to glamorous but it's accurate and people know exactly what it means!

Thanks for the comment Johan, you are absolutely right! Oftentimes we act one way at home and another way at work which is inherently not authentic!

Thanks for sharing and glad we agree! I'l take a look at the link.

Re: Does Work/Life Balance Really Exist?

jacobmorgan — Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:37:10 -0000

Thanks for taking the time to post such an in-depth comment. However, I think how you feel about your job is also a big contributing factor to the amount of stress you perceive. If you don't like your job then any simple digital experience will feel stressful whereas the opposite is not necessarily going to be true. Interesting concept, thanks for sharing it!

Re: Does Work/Life Balance Really Exist?

Sure, but I think what you call is less important that what it actually produces!

Thanks for the kind words Matt, appreciate you taking the time the comment. Separating from tech is certainly a challenge but we have to try!

Re: 14 Principles of the Future Organization

jacobmorgan — Fri, 30 Jan 2015 13:20:15 -0000

Good question!

"the right people in senior management roles" seems to have been the approach that we have assumed is happening as of now. However, many organizations are focusing on gender diversity programs to get more women involved in senior management roles because of the tremendous research which shows how they impact the bottom line yet at the same time there are several factors which are keeping them from moving up. Don't mean to sound a bit vague here but I have a large infographic I'm working on which will come out in the next week or so that explains this in more detail. Still, a fair question to ask!

Hey Dave,

You caught a typo :)

I have changed it from "adapt" to "adopt" and can certainly see why you found it to be confusing. Thanks for catching that and pointing it out, much appreciated!

Hi Marika,

I typically like to look out around 5 years. We have several members of our FOW Community from the finance space who are surprising forward thinking when it comes to these things! Thanks for the comment.

Re: The Single Greatest Cause Of Employee Disengagement

jacobmorgan — Sun, 02 Nov 2014 20:56:53 -0000

Well it's quite a lot to write about each company and their initiatives, that would be several pages! But perhaps one day I will do that as blog post. Glad you have the book, let me know what you think.

Hi Jim,

My new book on the future of work has lots of examples and stories that you can check out it out here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/pr...

That would be the best place to learn more.

Re: Is Reddit’s Decision To Kill Off Remote Workers A Good Idea?

jacobmorgan — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 13:08:37 -0000

I definitely still see the merits and value of getting people together but I don't think it's the only way we should/can work and it makes no sense to mandate something like that.

Re: Is Reddit’s Decision To Kill Off Remote Workers A Good Idea?

jacobmorgan — Wed, 08 Oct 2014 23:30:56 -0000

I couldn't agree with you more. It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the long-run as they are already getting quite a bit of bad press around their decision.
