Chase the vision, not the money; the money will end up following you.”
~Tony Hsieh, Zappos CEO

Hi !

The future of work has been on the public debate for decades. It changes, in most cases slowly, with some early adopters and many laggards. Some issues are discussed in one of the articles I bring you in this newsletter.

Until next week, have a great weekend, and keep making things happen,
