Harvard Business Review: Open Talent: Leveraging the Global Workforce to Solve Your Biggest Challenges

AmCham Denmark, in partnership with DAWN, invite members and stakeholders to an event with Harvard Business Review Author & thought leader, John Winsor, to discuss his book “Open Talent: Leveraging the Global Workforce to Solve Your Biggest Challenges”.

As the pandemic waned, we returned to sparsely populated offices and empty conference rooms. Our working life had been transformed, seemingly overnight. We rocketed a decade forward in one year, and now the imperative is clear—adapt to and leverage this new, digitally enabled world of “open talent” or get left behind.

In this essential guide for the new world of work, thought leader John Winsor shows how talented workers everywhere exited their jobs without leaving the workforce, freelancing for multiple companies or starting small businesses. What’s more, with platforms like Freelancer.com, Fiverr, and UpWork, talent has more power than ever.

How can companies adapt? The key is shifting to what the author calls a networked organization, revolving around talent and projects from inside and outside the organization, viewing talent as a needed global ecosystem.

With rich stories, keen insights, and lots of practical advice, Winsor provides a new framework for transforming your organization into a talent-orchestrating, problem- solving machine.
