The Rise of Independent Work with Noah Lang
Description
Since the pandemic began, it seems like everyone’s favorite topic is "the future of work." But in all the talk about return to office, remote work, and Zoom fatigue, are we missing the headline here? In 2023, the number of number of independent workers in the US quadrupled to 64 million - that’s 45% of the American workforce.
In this episode, J.B. talks with Noah Lang, founder of Stride Health, the leader of portable benefits for independent workers , to find out what's behind this trend and what it takes to build a company that meets the needs of this incredibly fast growing sector.
" Fundamentally, what's driving the independent economy is people want more flexibility... we've just kept trying to knock down problems that people who work for themselves have to solve." - Noah Lang
