The demand for freelance consulting opportunities is growing rapidly in the last few months, with the opening of the economy and revival of demand across most sectors. Organisations are facing unprecedented attrition and churn in their workforce, as professional managers are re-evaluating their work-life options.  In this scenario, organisations are waking up to the need and potential of leveraging the "liquid workforce" - skilled and experienced freelance professionals to take up short-term projects, interim roles, on a flexible contractual basis. 

IndusGuru invited a curated audience to be a part of an interactive session to discuss and share some use cases / success stories, profile the emerging areas / opportunities for our current Network members and share our Network Referral model to help grow opportunities for all our members.

The session covered a note from the founder, director Deepak Malkani on the drastic shift in worker expectations and the dominant trend in the need for ever increasing flexibility, in defining work, worker and the workplace. And how this has given rise to the fundamentals changes in the nature of work, giving a booster shot to the gig-economy.

This was then followed by the a session on the front line experiences by our clients – partner and ex-partner from leading Global and Local consulting firms and then from our very own expert consultants empanelled with us from different domains about their experiences and tips for embarking on a gig consulting career.
