The Work Intelligence Loop

After the Jobs Are Gone: Rethinking Employment in the Age of AI with Josh Drean

In this episode of The Work Intelligence Loop, Todd Michaud sits down with Josh Drean, workforce futurist and author, to explore how AI is fundamentally reshaping the nature of employment and what that means for individuals, leaders, and organizations trying to stay ahead of the shift.

They dig into why the traditional job title may already be a legacy construct, how the focus is moving from time-based employment to output and contribution-based work, and what it takes to build lasting value in an AI-driven economy.

The conversation also covers practical frameworks for AI implementation, the rise of decentralized work ecosystems, and the cultural and generational dynamics that make this transition as human as it is technological.
