    [synopsis] => Today, more than a third of Americans are working in the gig economy--mixing together short-term jobs, contract work, and freelance assignments. For those who've figured out the formula, life has never been better! You, too, can learn how to embrace the independent and self-sufficient world of freelance! 
 
The Gig Economy is your guide to this uncertain but ultimately rewarding world. Packed with research, exercises, and anecdotes, this eye-opening book supplies strategies--ranging from the professional to the personal--to help you leverage your skills, knowledge, and network to create your own career trajectory--one immune to the impulsive whims of an employer looking only at today's bottom line. Learn how to:
• Construct a life based on your priorities and vision of success
• Cultivate connections without networking
• Create your own security
• Build flexibility into your financial life
• Face your fears by reducing risk
• And much more! 
 
Corporate jobs are not only unstable--they're increasingly scarce. It's time to take charge of your own career and lead the life you actually want. Start mapping out your place in the gig economy today!
