Q & A
Pourquoi le modèle de travail de 9 à 17 heures n'est-il plus aussi efficace qu'avant?
-Le modèle de travail de 9 à 17 heures n'est plus aussi efficace car la loyauté entre employés et entreprises a diminué, les employés sont de plus en plus considérés comme des rouages remplaçables, et l'augmentation du travail sans réelle augmentation de salaire rend cette structure de travail obsolète.
Quels sont les effets des licenciements et des départs d'employés sur ceux qui restent?
-Les licenciements et les départs d'employés conduisent à une augmentation du travail et des attentes pour les employés restants, qui doivent répondre aux emails sans délai, participer aux canaux de communication 24h/24 et faire le travail de plusieurs personnes.
Pourquoi la notion de 'temps est de l'argent' n'est-elle plus aussi applicable qu'avant?
-La notion de 'temps est de l'argent' est moins applicable car, avec la réduction des emplois dans le secteur manufacturier et l'avancée des technologies, le travail basé sur les connaissances est de plus en plus important, et le nombre d'heures travaillées n'est plus directement lié à la quantité de production.
Quel est le problème avec le système de travail actuel qui ressemble à la chaîne de montage?
-Le problème est que le système de travail actuel force les travailleurs à s'adapter à un mold qui n'a pas été créé pour eux, ce qui conduit à une fausse apparence de travail, souvent appelée 'travaille', où les employés semblent occupés mais ne produisent pas réellement.
Quel est l'impact du 'travaille' sur les entreprises?
-Le 'travaille' coûte aux entreprises environ 1,5 trillion de dollars par an, car les employés qui font semblant de travailler ne contribuent pas efficacement à la productivité de l'entreprise.
Pourquoi le travail à temps partiel est-il en pleine expansion?
-Le travail à temps partiel, ou gig work, est en expansion car il offre une flexibilité accrue aux travailleurs et permet aux entreprises de réduire les coûts en ne payant que pour le travail effectué, sans avoir à fournir de prestations supplémentaires.
Quels sont les avantages du travail à temps partiel pour les travailleurs?
-Les travailleurs à temps partiel peuvent être leur propre patron, déterminer quand, où et pour qui travailler, ce qui leur offre une meilleure balance entre vie professionnelle et vie personnelle et les rend plus productifs et heureux.
Pourquoi les entreprises sont-elles de plus en plus enclins à embaucher des travailleurs indépendants?
-Les entreprises embauchent des travailleurs indépendants car cela leur offre une flexibilité, une vitesse d'embauche plus rapide et permet de réduire les coûts liés aux prestations des employés à temps plein.
Quels sont les trois conseils pour futuriser votre carrière indépendamment de l'évolution du modèle de travail?
-Les trois conseils sont de construire votre capital de carrière, de maximiser votre revenu actif et de briser le plafond salariale en créant d'autres sources de revenus.
Quelle est la différence entre le revenu actif et le revenu passif?
-Le revenu actif est le revenu que vous gagnez en échange de votre temps de travail, tandis que le revenu passif est le revenu que vous gagnez sans avoir à fournir activement votre temps ou vos efforts, comme les intérêts, les dividendes ou les revenus de location.
Pourquoi est-il important de gérer correctement votre argent, même si vous gagnez beaucoup?
-Il est important de gérer correctement votre argent car même si vous gagnez beaucoup, si vous ne savez pas comment le gérer efficacement, vous pourriez tout perdre. La gestion financière saine est essentielle pour assurer la stabilité et la croissance de votre richesse.
Outlines
🕒 La fin de la journée de travail de 9 à 5
Le script explore pourquoi le modèle de travail traditionnel de 9 à 5, en place depuis plus de 100 ans, ne fonctionne plus. Il mentionne l'érosion de la loyauté entre employés et entreprises, où les employés sont devenus des rouages remplaçables. Il souligne également l'augmentation de la charge de travail et des attentes pour les employés restants après des licenciements, souvent récompensés par de maigres augmentations salariales. Le script critique également le système de travail basé sur le temps plutôt que sur la productivité, mentionnant le 'travail feint' où les employés apparaissent occupés sans produire de travail réel. Il suggère que le travail à domicile est en croissance et pourrait remplacer le modèle traditionnel.
📈 L'essor du travail indépendant et du 'gig work'
Le deuxième paragraphe met en évidence la montée en puissance du travail indépendant, ou 'gig work', qui est devenu un élément significatif de l'économie moderne. Il explique que ce type de travail, effectué par des contractants indépendants, est en augmentation rapide, passant de 4 millions à 64 millions d'Américains entre 2022 et 2023. Le script argumente que cette tendance est due à la flexibilité offerte, à la maîtrise de son propre emploi et au bon équilibre entre vie professionnelle et personnelle. Les entreprises, de leur côté, préfèrent les travailleurs indépendants en raison de la flexibilité, de la rapidité d'embauche et des économies sur les coûts, notamment en périodes économiques incertaines.
💼 Préparer l'avenir du travail et la sécurité financière
Le dernier paragraphe donne des conseils pour préparer un avenir potentiellement sans emploi de 9 à 5. Il suggère de construire un capital de carrière en développant constamment ses compétences, de maximiser son revenu actif en négociant des augmentations et en investissant, et de briser le plafond salariale en créant d'autres sources de revenus. Le script insiste sur l'importance de la sécurité financière et de la préparation face à l'incertitude du marché du travail, en encourageant à la création de side hustles et à la mise en place de revenus passifs pour assurer une protection en cas de perte d'emploi.

Transcripts
the 9 to5 workday has been the golden
standard for more than 100 years but
that might soon come to an end today
I'll share three reasons the 9 to5 isn't
working anymore what might replace it
and how you can prepare yourself for the
next few years first as Kendrick said
loyalty loyalty loyalty many of you
probably remember your grandparents
sharing stories about how they landed
their first job at 18 they worked there
for 47 years and then they retired with
a nice fat pension the problem is that
kind of Company employee loyalty no
longer exist today many companies could
not care less about their employees
which creates a self-perpetuating cycle
of disengagement in the company's eyes
you are just a cog in a machine if you
disappeared tomorrow the company would
just replace you with another Cog as if
you never existed and workers are
beginning to realize this that's why
worker loyalty now goes to the companies
willing to pay them the most and willing
to treat them right but the story might
get even worse a 2023 study found that
layoffs and employee departures lead to
more work and expectations for the
employees who remain they're expected to
answer emails without delay participate
in slack channels 24/7 attend every Zoom
meeting and do the job of three people
somewhere in between all of that and
sure employees who stick through this
increased workload might get rewarded
with a 2% maybe 3% raise at the end of
each year but nowadays that feels like
more of a slap in the face than anything
else next Benjamin Franklin once said
time is money describing the belief that
more time working leads to more money
money which made sense decades ago when
manufacturing was a big part of our
economy during the Industrial Revolution
the number of hours you worked directly
tied to how much you produced and
ultimately how much money could be made
for example in a car manufacturing
Factory an 8- hour shift equated to
about a th000 cars and that would be
consistent across shifts and across the
employees which is why companies relied
heavily on Punch Cards to monitor 8 hour
shifts day in and day out the problem is
we're still following a work system them
designed nearly 100 years ago a time
when we had radios that weighed 60 lb
and sounded like chicken scratch but
with the decline of manufacturing jobs
and advancing Technologies knowledge
work now drives a large part of today's
economy making the requirement of
everyone working the same 8 hour shift
absolete do all accountants work at the
same speed do all marketing managers
need to work 40 hours do consultants
stop working after 5:00 p.m. TV shows
like the office are super popular
because they ridicule the outdated
flexible work schedule of today there's
even one episode where everyone is
trying to trick the manager Michael into
believing it's 5:00 p.m. so they can all
leave early despite everyone having
complete their work already the workers
go through the length of adjusting the
time on all the computers the clock in
the office the clock in Michael's car
and even Michael's wristwatch although
the concept of work itself has changed
so much how company's measure work
output has remained the same the 9 to5
work schedule continues to resemble the
assembly line which forces knowledge
workers to fit a mold that wasn't
created for them next imagine being told
that you need to stay busy for 8 hours
even if you finish your task early I bet
you dried your hardest to make the time
passed as quickly as possible Cal
Newport refers to this as the busyness
as a proxy for productivity AKA fake
work fake work is basically when you
appear to be working but in reality
you're not actually doing anything you
might have your Google Sheets open and a
slack Channel up on your computer but
you're secretly tagging your friends in
memes so a few years ago one of my
friends joined a law firm as their it
guy handling their digital documents so
his job was basically to look for and
transfer documents to a server for
evidence that's it that was his entire
job and I kid you not he said that it
took him just 2 weeks two weeks to write
a program that did exactly that for him
his program scanned for new files and
then would automatically transfer them
to the cloud literally every morning he
would just log in he start his program
and then he would play video games or
watch TV for the next 8 hours and he
only need needed to check the logs at
the end of the day to make sure
everything ran smoothly my friend
basically did fake work for about a year
before the company caught on now the
problem is for the companies employees
doing fake work because they need to
look like they're working cost companies
about $1.5 trillion per year so clearly
the traditional 9 to-5 workday isn't
beneficial to workers or companies so
what's the alternative according to
several studies the alternative to the
95 job gig workk is growing at it
unprecedented Pace but when I say gig
workk you're probably imagining your
friendly neighborhood Uber driver or
instacart delivery guy but gig work is
so much more than that by definition
it's basically any work performed by an
independent contractor there's graphic
designers caregivers tutors and More in
2022 4 million Americans did some kind
of gig and freelancing work but just one
year later in 2023 that number jumped to
64 million Americans or 30 8% of the US
Workforce and the contributions this has
on the economy is huge in 2014
Freelancers contributed
$715 billion to the economy but in just
9 years in 2023 that number reached
$1.27 trillion so it's clear that gig
work is becoming a significant force in
redefining the traditional work
structures and going so far as to
permeate Corporate America in 2021 7 1%
of hiring managers said they plan to
sustain or increase their use of
Freelancers in the future but the big
question now is why is gig work becoming
so popular looking back the past few
years it's clear that the 95 work
structure is going through a pivotal
time a catalyst that laid the foundation
for how work was about to change forever
it signal two Essential Elements first
the workers when it comes to the
traditional 9 to-5 it usually means
you're working Monday to Friday
reporting to a boss and told where you
need to be at all times but with a gig
worker you're Your Own Boss you can
determine when where and who you want to
work for if you want to take Friday off
go ahead if you want to start working
later or end a little earlier why not
today flexibility is becoming more
important than ever with 72% of workers
saying work life balance is a critical
Factor when choosing where to work
people want to spend time with their
family ReDiscover their Hobbies or
travel without being limited by seven
vacations days a year to them the
flexibility of gig work offers them a
way out and it's not about being lazy
studies show that people work best when
they have control over their schedules
they're happier and 21% more productive
and knowledge work depends on optimal
brain function and optimal brain
function depends on physical and
emotional well-being but it's not just
workers who prefer gig work many
companies have recently been announcing
layoffs and hiring freezes to maintain
profits and reduce cost and anti ipation
of a worsening economy the problem is
businesses can't just stop hiring people
altogether they still need workers to
grow or maintain their operations so who
are they going to hire in 2022 78% of
Business Leaders said they're more
likely to hire Freelancers than
full-time employees during uncertain
Economic Times for three reasons first
flexibility similar to why workers
prefer freelancing businesses prefer
Freelancers too it's less risky than
hiring a permanent employee who needs to
be paid whether there's any work for
them or not Freelancers on the other
hand are hired on a clearly defined
budget and project meaning companies
don't have to worry about finding them
new work them doing fake work or running
out of funding next it's faster to hire
a LinkedIn study found that the average
time to hire someone is 41 days which
can get pretty expensive there's
multiple rounds of interviews there's
background and screening and then weeks
of training on the other hand companies
can bring on a freelancer for a specific
project in a matter of days it can get
even Messier if companies realize that
they hired the wrong person for the job
if it's a permanent employee it can be
tough to navigate through mountains of
paperwork and bureaucracy to fire them
but if it's a freelancer companies can
easily let them go next studies show
that it's 20 to 30% cheaper per year to
hire a freelancer over a permanent
employee because companies don't have to
provide benefits like health insurance
pay vacation days or retirement plans
for small to midsize companies who might
not have a ton of capital these cost
savings can quickly add up but if you're
worried about what's going to happen to
your 9 to5 over the next few years here
are three things you can start doing
today to Future proof your career no
matter what happens first build your
career of capital because it will be the
stepping stone for everything else in
the book be so good they can't ignore
you C Newport says your career capital
is basically your skills resources and
abilities that you accumulate throughout
your career that allow you to have more
leverage in life the trick to building
your career capital is accepting the
fact that you don't know everything and
that you can constantly learn more
because the truth is a college degree
isn't good enough to get a good job
anymore you need to constantly be
upskilling to stand out from the
competition but more importantly to be
able to demand more money when I
realized the importance of kurer capital
early on I dedicated an hour or two
every week to Learn Python a programming
language so I can do one thing my
biggest priority at the time was to max
out my salary through my day job my plan
was pretty simple it was to show that I
could excel at work so I could
aggressively push for pay raises and
promotions and if they said no then I
knew I had to cre Capital to just find a
different company NeXT maximize your
active income a lot of people nowadays
are just focusing on passive income and
trying to grow that income stream which
is fine but in my experience it is
infinitely better to prioritize your
active income stream to get the ball
rolling because it's a lot easier to do
that with your career Capital at least
in the beginning and then the plan is to
use that to amplify your other income
streams that could be passive in the
future like if my current active income
stream allows me to invest $100 in a
stock market and the stock market goes
up by 10% then I would earn $10 but if I
was able to increase my active income
stream to the point that I could
comfortably invest let's say $11,000
then a 10% return now means I earn $100
so when I was working I just
aggressively asked for raises so I could
increase how much money I could save and
invest it was sort of like a fly wheel
the more money I could save the more
money that I could invest and the more
money I invested the more money I earned
you can use an app or a Tracker to make
sure you're on track and hitting your
savings goals but if you want the
savings goal tracker that I used in
order to do all this I'll link in the
description below and over time I was
able to earn enough that I could use
that extra money to hire Freelancers to
help me build out my other income
streams next break the wage ceiling the
problem is even if you are the best at
what you do and you constantly get
raises and promotions you're still
trading your time for money which leads
to two issues first let's say you're
being paid X for y number of hours that
you work the problem is you're limited
by the number of hours that you can work
24 hours in a day assuming you don't
sleep or eat which I don't recommend
second there is a limit to how much
someone will pay you for your skills if
you're a super specialized doctor you
might be able to make $3,000 per hour
but eventually you're still going to hit
a wage ceiling because the market won't
pay a higher price this is why after
you're at a good amount with your active
income stream you need to create other
income streams and I know you're tired
about hearing about side hustles and
working multiple jobs but unfortunately
that's the reality we live in while a
full-time job might provide a sense of
security with paychecks coming in every
2 weeks you never know when that's going
to end in 2023 over 263,000 Tech workers
lost their jobs and that number is only
increasing in 2024 starting another
income stream whether that's investing
or freelancing is essentially preparing
a safety net before it's too late and
you don't need to quit your job before
you start one a 2024 report found that
44% of new business owners in the US
launched their businesses while working
part or full time in 2023 and even if it
doesn't evolve into a full-blown
business it's still going to be a
fantastic safety net where you
constantly have income coming in in case
you suddenly get laid off but what if I
told you that just making more money is
enough the truth is even if you earn
hundreds of thousands of dollars a year
if you don't know the best way to manage
your money you could lose everything
click here to learn how you can manage
your money like the 1% so you can start
doing that today
