    Work 2.0 by Sergiusz Prokurat

    In Work 2.0 we express our individuality as we like, and not according to a set of defined rules.

    Information is a stronger weapon than many conventional arms, knowledge is becoming the main source of competitive advantage.

    One person could bring about a revolution.

    The best capital you could possibly have turns out to be the ability of creative thinking.

    The changes in the world of work don’t just influence job seekers – they will, in fact, become the bread and butter of everyone who creates value in the economy.

    Changes are so profound that we can say we’re entering a new era of work.

    In the long term the only sustainable source of competitive advantage is creativity – the basis for new ideas, launching new products and services, expanding knowledge into hitherto unknown dimensions.

    If you hire people just because they can do a job, they’ll work for your money. But if you hire people who believe what you believe, they’ll work for you with blood and sweat and tears. — Simon Sinek

    If you’re not prepared to be wrong, you’ll never come up with anything original. — Ken Robinson

    Trade is 10 times as old as farming. — Matt Ridley

    Free is really the gift of Silicon Valley to the world. It’s an economic force. It’s a technical force. It’s a deflationary force, if not handled right. It is abundance, as opposed to scarcity. Free is the most interesting thing. — Chris Anderson
