The rapid development of technology and globalization has changed the leverage points in accumulating wealth: money, meaning and freedom. Those that don’t adapt are becoming trapped in the downward spiral - working harder and contributing less. Entrepreneurs, inside and outside organizations, that understand the new paradigm are creating unprecedented wealth in their lives and the lives of those they love.

Taylor is an entrepreneur and author of The End of Jobs. Inc Magazine rated The End of Jobs a Top Business Book of 2015. His work has been featured in dozens of media outlets including Business Insider, Inc, Entrepreneur and The Huffington Post.
