Crowds in the โ€œRe-imaginationโ€ landscape
Analysts See Crowdsourcing Trending Based on Connectivity
โ€œโ€ฆthanks to the merger of globalization and the IT revolution
โ€ฆ which is radically transforming how knowledge and
information are generated, disseminated and collaborated on
to create value โ€ฆ the high wage, medium-skilled job is over.โ€
โ€œTo be in the middle class you may need to consider not only
high skilled jobs, but also more non-traditional forms of
workโ€ฆ a form of entrepreneurship. This could be leveraging
your skills through Task Rabbit โ€ฆ or your spare bedroom
through AirBnB.โ€ (Quoting McKinsey Global Institute)
