I could not read this Early Reviewers selection. The author seems to think that the gig economy is brand new and only active in the tech industry. I have been in the gig industry for decades and not in the tech industry. Also, he repeats catch phrases over and over as if he is trying to "brand" them, but the tactic only succeeded in boring me. I wish the book had been about the mulitfaceted gig economy and how to use it well, but it is not.

Strong emphasis on technological skills and opportunities, Watkins also focus on those soft-skills that helps young people become entrepreneurs.
