The future of work will be based on much more fluid and short-lived working arrangements, as Neil Perkin points out:
Relentless digitisation and the recession have combined to create an environment in which the value of much of what we have known is depreciating, and which increasingly requires a culture and a pace of innovation that is consistent with start-ups. Organisational value is shifting from protecting knowledge assets, to encouraging knowledge flow. […] New models are springing up that follow a philosophy where access trumps ownership. Assets are increasingly about relationships.
