Synopsis

In The 2030 Papers, thought leader and futurist Shannon Gaydos offers a wake-up call about the unprecedented shifts impacting the way we learn, work, age—and die. Global aging, longer lifespans, automation, and an ever-growing wealth gap are all trends that will significantly alter work as we know it. Senior citizens are paying off student debt, working longer than ever before, living with new roommates in new ways, and disproving long-held notions of what the “golden years” are all about. Increasing numbers of Americans are waiting longer to have children, electing alternative fertility methods, and having less of them. Scientists are changing the rules on how we are born and how we die; fantastical startups are offering new alternatives to burial; and employees are re-writing the rules of employment—challenging where, how, and what we work on—as employers struggle to keep up.Packed with information and concluding with tangible solutions, Gaydos aims to transform a concerning future into a hopeful one. Thoroughly researched and well-cited; part entertainment and part cautionary tale; The 2030 Papers provides a meditation on what is happening now, what got us here, and where it all leads. As Gaydos has said, “Although we are late to the game—in some cases egregiously so—there is still time to pause, examine, and reform longstanding policies and institutional norms to better support our future. It is not too late to course-correct. The future is alterable if we want it to be so.”The 2030 Papers is a must-read for entrepreneurs and corporate strategists, political and business leaders, marketers, seniors and every American looking for a glimpse into the future.
