Erin Halper | Women Quit To Rise In The Solopreneur Economy

The Disrupted Workforce

GUEST | Erin Halper is the founder and CEO of The UPSIDE, where top independent consultants join forces to advance their business. Since launching The Upside in 2017, Erin has helped thousands of women transition from corporate life to take their expertise into independent consulting to achieve more flexibility, autonomy, and a renewed sense of purpose in their careers.

DETAILS | Women leaders are quitting at the highest rate recorded since 2015! You might think this was sparked by the pandemic, the great resignation, or fueled by changing values in the workplace. But Erin reminds us this isn’t a new trend — in fact, this is the insight and genesis of her successful business, The UPSIDE. The reality is that more leaders and professionals are looking outside the traditional corporation for more flexibility, increased well-being, more time with family, and better career opportunities. This deeply personal conversation covers the emotional gamut while discussing marginalized groups, speaking up, redefining leadership, the erosion of the belief that the corporation will have your back, and the shifting balance of power.

OVERVIEW | Are you ready to ADAPT and REINVENT YOURSELF for the most disrupted and digital workforce in history? What would it feel like to belong and not get stuck? It is estimated over 1 billion people will need reskilling by 2030, and more than 300 million jobs will be impacted by AI — work, identity, and what it means to be human are rapidly changing. Join hosts Nate Thompson and Alex Schwartz and the TOP VOICES in the Future of Work to uncover how to meet this dynamic new reality driven by AI, hybrid work, societal shifts, and our increasingly digital world. Discover why a Future of Work Mindset is your key to prepare, navigate and thrive!
