Bruce Feiler, author of “The Search: Finding Meaningful Work in a Post-Career World” has been researching today’s workforce. Feiler discovered that the average worker goes through a moment of disruption, reevaluation or reinvention every two-and-a-half years.
Feiler has labeled this a workquake.
Last year, fifty million Americans quit a job. Three-quarters of Americans said that they plan to look for new work this year. These workquakes are revolutionizing America’s workplaces.
Many workers, especially millennials and Gen Zs are looking for work with meaning.
Proverbs 20:5 says, “The purpose in a man’s heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.”
Future employers will need to help employees find meaning and purpose behind the work they ask employees to do, or they may do it alone.
