The High-End Gig Economy: Why Top Consultants Are Going Solo

The Great Resignation

We often associate the "Gig Economy" with delivery riders or freelance designers. But a quiet revolution is happening at the top. Senior Partners from consulting firms and VPs from tech giants are quitting to go independent. They are trading the safety of a salary for the freedom of the gig. This is the gig economy for consultants high value, high impact.

What They Want

These "Super-Solos" want autonomy. They want to choose the projects that interest them. They want to avoid the internal politics and endless meetings of corporate life. They want to focus on impact. They are looking for platforms that act as an independent consultant marketplace.

What It Means for You

For a business owner, this is a gold rush. Talent that was previously locked away inside a billion-dollar company is now available to you on a project basis. The barriers to accessing world-class intellect have crumbled. The only question is: are you ready to hire them? The best talent is no longer looking for a job; they are looking for a project.
