About the Authors
"We have arrived at a moment where we can backslide into the status quo or transform society for generations to come. How the Future Works makes the latter possible--providing us with a blueprint to deeply consider the future of work. It is a must-read for today's leaders."
--Indra Nooyi, former CEO, PepsiCo and author of My Life in Full
"We know flexibility is the future of work--the big question is how it's going to work. This book combines the latest data with actionable advice on giving people more freedom without settling for less excellence."
--Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and host of the TED podcast WorkLife
"How the Future Works uncovers the key principles for building a culture that connects, supports and inspires every employee in this new all-digital, work-from-anywhere world. It's an essential guidebook for transforming the way people work and unlocking their potential."
--Marc Benioff, Chair and Co-CEO, Salesforce
"I pay attention to the Future Forum. And if you're interested in folks who take in gobs of data, listen, ask useful questions, and make helpful judgements on how we might work now, you might too."
--Priya Parker, author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters
"CEOs confront few topics as complex, urgent, and strategically important as the future of work in a post-pandemic, increasingly digitized world. Brian, Sheela, and Helen highlight pitfalls, provide insight and practical advice to help guide leaders through these choices, and put us on a path to improve work for the benefit of our people and our organizations."
--Rich Lesser, Global Chair, Boston Consulting Group
"The disruption to work ushered in the era for flexible work forcefully. This insightful book provides a framework with examples for successfully implementing flexible, diverse, and inclusive cultures."
--Tsedal Neeley, Professor, Harvard Business School and author of Remote Work Revolution and co-author of The Digital Mindset
"How the Future Works is as valuable as it is much needed for today's executive. The book is excellently conceived, organized and written. Plus, with the checklist at each chapter's end and the tool kit at the book's closing, it's very easy to turn this into an action plan. Bravo!"
--Alan Murray, CEO, FORTUNE
"How the Future Works is an incredible resource for business leaders as we navigate seismic changes in today's workplace. The founders of the Future Forum are helping to answer some of the bigger questions we're facing as we reimagine work and create new ways of working that can better serve both employees and employers."
--Tracy Layney, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, Levi Strauss & Co.
"How the Future Works builds a very strong business case to reset how we think about flexibility, resulting in a better, more sustainable work model for both employees and organizations. It provides practical guidance and resources to think through where, when, and how work gets done - and most importantly, why flexibility makes strategic sense. An excellent read for leaders who are re-imagining the future of work post-pandemic, amidst a very competitive talent marketplace."
--Helena Gottschling, Chief Human Resource Officer, Royal Bank of Canada
