The most expensive freelance hire isn't the one who lacked skill.
It's the one who didn't fit.

Cultural mismatch is silent, expensive, and almost entirely preventable.

goLance's Cultural Assessment Score fixes that before the first interview.

In just 10 minutes

[goLance @golanceofficial]

A law firm in Sweden cut freelancer turnover by 68% in 18 months.

They didn't change who they hired. They changed how they filtered for fit.

@AFpost This article is misleading. I live in Puerto Rico on the Ritz Carlton reserve. Vivek was doing a fundraiser here.

It was a golf and Pickleball tournament, 2 event dinners with private donors. I personally donated $16,000 to campaign to support the events.

Nearly 1.6 billion people are now freelancing.
Freelancing grew 22% last year.

People don't want fewer hours; they want more ownership.

Work didn't disappear.
It just changed who's in charge of it. ⚡

The 9-to-5 is dead! Remote work wins.

Over 60% of companies are hybrid/remote.

Flexible workers are 35% more engaged.

Success = output, not attendance.

[goLance @golanceofficial]

Career monogamy is dead.

58% of professionals under 40 run multiple income streams. Multi-hyphenates grew 32% on LinkedIn last year alone.

Success isn't climbing one ladder.
It's building your own scaffolding.

The future belongs to people with range.

[goLance @golanceofficial]

Humans are still winning at being human!

Creativity is booming.

Roles requiring emotional/creative intelligence are growing 2X faster than routine jobs, and global demand for creative freelancers surged 31%.

[goLance @golanceofficial]

Automation is coming, but don't panic!

By 2030, about a quarter of work tasks should be automated, but humans using AI are more effective than either alone.

Freelancers are leading the way in adapting.

Sam Corcos is the biggest maniac about delegation and personal tracking I've ever met.

He time tracked every waking hour of his last two years while scaling his 4th startup. No CEO has ever shared this before.

Here's what every founder should learn from him 🧵
