We explored purpose, leadership, and the shifting world of work. I shared my story, yes\u2014but, more importantly, we talked about <em>their<\/em> future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And what a future it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A New Tool, an Old Feeling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I recently installed a ChatGPT client on my phone, and the feeling takes me straight back to 1995, when I first logged on to the \u201cworld\u2011wide web.\u201d Today, I can locate information, sort it, analyze it, and solve problems in minutes\u2014problems that once lingered in the back of my mind for years. I can spin up apps, websites, even blog posts like this in almost no time. I feel an itch to open the app and create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet\u2014just as in 1995\u2014I also feel a flicker of frustration. So much power, and yet so few ideas come to mind for how to wield it. Innovation still begins with inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beyond Knowledge: Toward Purpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are entering an era shaped by artificial intelligence, Teal and evolutionary organizations, and a growing hunger for meaningful, human\u2011centered work. These trends are reshaping not just <em>what<\/em> we do, but <em>how<\/em> and <em>why<\/em> we do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I half\u2011joked with the CSU students that much of what they learned over four years is now accessible in seconds through ChatGPT. Their education isn\u2019t obsolete\u2014it is simply insufficient on its own. Their real role is to build not only better products and services, but better worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Work That Feeds the Soul<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The future of work lies in what I call <em>inspired unfolding<\/em>\u2014allowing people to bring their intrinsic passions to life. Not just what makes them productive, but what makes them <em>alive<\/em>. Not merely profit, but purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This vision may resonate most with those who have known some form of abundance\u2014or who place trust in something larger: God, the universe, the human spirit. I know how bold it sounds to talk about abundance when hunger remains. And yet, we already produce enough food; we hoard, waste, and withhold it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Abundance, I believe, is our natural state. Scarcity is often a choice\u2014or worse, a system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">History brims with collectives that hoard power by inventing ghosts\u2014scapegoats, threats\u2014so they can deny others love, belonging, esteem, security. That, to me, is evil: refusing to feed another\u2019s humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keynes and the 15\u2011Hour Workweek<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1930, economist John\u202fMaynard\u202fKeynes predicted that by 2030 we would work just fifteen hours a week, devoting the rest of our time to leisure, growth, and higher pursuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Critics scoff, saying Keynes underestimated our addiction to work and consumption. They\u2019re partly right. Many of us have chosen to consume more, hoard more, and measure worth by output alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But perhaps the issue isn\u2019t our love of work\u2014it\u2019s our fear of rest. Overwork, burnout, ruthless competition: these may be symptoms of disconnection from what is truly alive in us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Artist, the Father, and the Untangled Line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Years ago, my daughter came home from school in Norway and announced that she was being excused from algebra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was stunned. Half\u2011laughing, I suggested that artists need backup plans. She remained calm:<br>\u201cDad, I don\u2019t care about money. I want to be an artist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She was fourteen\u2014yet wiser than me. Her line was already in the water: clear, strong, untangled. I, meanwhile, was yanking at it, adding knots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Someday, I hope to be as whole as my daughter was at fourteen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Rise of the Inspiration Economy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As AI increasingly handles \u201chard work\u201d\u2014calculations, research, even complex coding\u2014our true value will lie in what machines cannot replicate: imagination, love, play, presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is the Inspiration Economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspiration isn\u2019t measured in hours\u2014it\u2019s measured in insight. My best ideas never arrived at my desk. They found me while I was on a walk, on vacation, in stillness\u2014in Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let Kids Be Kids (and Adults Be Humans)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">California recently expanded pre\u2011K to include children as young as three. It\u2019s a welcome support for working parents, especially moms. In Norway, though, they don\u2019t call that education\u2014they call it <em>childhood<\/em>. Formal instruction begins at six or seven. Before then, kids climb trees, explore nature, build inner compasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I worry that in America we tangle lines too early. Pre\u2011K shouldn\u2019t be a pipeline to an AI\u2011proof career; it should be a time to connect\u2014with self, with others\u2014free of judgment and competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Two Futures, One Choice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some graduates will enter what I call the <em>Sweat Economy<\/em>\u2014driven by knowledge, performance, analytics. That path is valid. However, as machines improve, these graduates will compete with tools that never sleep or stumble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Others\u2014like my daughter\u2014will choose a different path, built on purpose, play, presence. They are the fifteen\u2011hour\u2011a\u2011week workers Keynes foresaw. They will live simply, work deeply, and create from internal abundance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both futures exist. We must honor both. But we must stop judging those who choose less consumption, more leisure, more light. They are not lazy; they are leading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lessons from Agile\u202fSix<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Agile\u202fSix we\u2019ve learned that people don\u2019t all work the same hours\u2014or in the same ways. Some teammates work more, others less. Some thrive on inspiration, others on rhythm. All flourish when given trust, autonomy, and room to breathe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Value cannot be measured solely by time. Increasingly, it\u2019s the inspired who deliver the exceptional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Future of Work, Summarized<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>More creation\u2014by doing less.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More impact\u2014by trusting more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More leadership\u2014by listening deeply.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More humanity, not less.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To the new graduates stepping into this moment: don\u2019t just prepare to work. Prepare to <strong>live<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Welcome to the Inspiration Economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"504\" data-attachment-id=\"413\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/betterplaces.blog\/?attachment_id=413\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/betterplaces.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/norwegian-flag.png?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"norwegian-flag\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/betterplaces.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/norwegian-flag.png?fit=672%2C504&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/betterplaces.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/norwegian-flag.png?resize=672%2C504&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-413\" style=\"width:202px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Velkommen til inspirasjons\u00f8konomien<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I forrige m\u00e5ned hadde jeg gleden av \u00e5 holde et foredrag for en forretningsstrategiklasse ved California\u202fState University. Vi snakket om hensikt, lederskap og arbeidslivets forandring. Jeg delte min egen historie, ja\u202f\u2013\u202fmen viktigst var samtalen om <em>deres<\/em> fremtid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Og for en fremtid det er.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Et nytt verkt\u00f8y, en gammel f\u00f8lelse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeg har nylig installert en ChatGPT\u2011klient p\u00e5 mobilen, og f\u00f8lelsen tar meg rett tilbake til 1995, da jeg f\u00f8rst logget p\u00e5 \u00abverdensveven\u00bb. I dag kan jeg finne, sortere og analysere informasjon og l\u00f8se problemer p\u00e5 minutter \u2013 problemer som tidligere kvernet i bakhodet i \u00e5revis. Jeg kan lage apper, nettsider og til og med blogginnlegg som dette nesten \u00f8yeblikkelig. Jeg f\u00e5r kl\u00f8e i fingrene etter \u00e5 \u00e5pne appen og skape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likevel \u2013 akkurat som i 1995 \u2013 kjenner jeg ogs\u00e5 p\u00e5 frustrasjon. S\u00e5 mye kraft, men s\u00e5 f\u00e5 ideer til hvordan jeg kan bruke den. Innovasjon starter fortsatt med inspirasjon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mer enn kunnskap: mot hensikt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vi g\u00e5r inn i en tid formet av kunstig intelligens, teal\u2011 og evolusjon\u00e6re organisasjoner og en voksende hunger etter meningsfylt, menneskesentrert arbeid. Disse trendene endrer ikke bare <em>hva<\/em> vi gj\u00f8r, men <em>hvordan<\/em> og <em>hvorfor<\/em> vi gj\u00f8r det.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeg sp\u00f8kte halvt med studentene ved CSU: Mye av det de har l\u00e6rt p\u00e5 fire \u00e5r, er n\u00e5 tilgjengelig p\u00e5 sekunder via ChatGPT. Utdanningen deres er ikke utdatert \u2013 men den er ikke lenger nok alene. Deres egentlige oppgave er \u00e5 bygge ikke bare bedre produkter og tjenester, men bedre verdener.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arbeid som n\u00e6rer sjelen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fremtidens arbeid handler om det jeg kaller <em>inspirert utfoldelse<\/em> \u2013 \u00e5 la mennesker bringe sine indre lidenskaper til live. Ikke bare det som gj\u00f8r dem produktive, men det som gj\u00f8r dem <em>levende<\/em>. Ikke bare profitt, men hensikt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Denne visjonen kan resonere sterkest hos dem som har kjent en eller annen form for overflod \u2013 eller som stoler p\u00e5 noe st\u00f8rre: Gud, universet, menneske\u00e5nden. Jeg vet hvor dristig det h\u00f8res ut \u00e5 snakke om overflod n\u00e5r sult fortsatt finnes. Men vi produserer allerede nok mat; vi hamstrer, sl\u00f8ser og holder den tilbake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overflod er v\u00e5r naturlige tilstand. Mangel er ofte et valg \u2013 eller verre, et system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Historien er full av grupper som hamstrer makt ved \u00e5 skape sp\u00f8kelser \u2013 syndebukker, trusler \u2013 slik at de kan nekte andre kj\u00e6rlighet, tilh\u00f8righet, respekt og trygghet. Det er, etter min mening, ondskap: \u00e5 nekte \u00e5 n\u00e6re et annet menneskes menneskelighet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keynes og 15\u2011timers\u00aduken<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I 1930 sp\u00e5dde \u00f8konomen John\u202fMaynard\u202fKeynes at vi innen 2030 ville jobbe bare femten timer i uken og bruke resten av tiden p\u00e5 fritid, vekst og h\u00f8yere sysler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kritikere ler og sier at Keynes undervurderte v\u00e5r avhengighet av arbeid og forbruk. De har delvis rett. Mange av oss har valgt \u00e5 forbruke mer, hamstre mer og m\u00e5le verdi i produksjon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Men kanskje problemet ikke er v\u00e5r kj\u00e6rlighet til arbeid \u2013 men v\u00e5r frykt for hvile. Overarbeid, utbrenthet, hensynsl\u00f8s konkurranse kan v\u00e6re symptomer p\u00e5 at vi har mistet forbindelsen til det som virkelig lever i oss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kunstneren, faren og den flokefrie sn\u00f8ret<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For noen \u00e5r siden kom datteren min hjem fra skolen i Norge og fortalte at hun var fritatt fra algebra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeg ble forbl\u00f8ffet. Halvt lattermild sa jeg at kunstnere trenger en reserveplan. Hun s\u00e5 rolig p\u00e5 meg og svarte:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abPappa, jeg bryr meg ikke om penger. Jeg vil v\u00e6re kunstner.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hun var fjorten \u2013 og klokere enn meg. Sn\u00f8ret hennes l\u00e5 allerede i vannet: klart, sterkt, uten knuter. Jeg, derimot, dro i det og laget floker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">En dag h\u00e5per jeg \u00e5 v\u00e6re like hel som datteren min var som fjorten\u00e5ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fremveksten av inspirasjons\u00f8konomien<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Etter hvert som kunstig intelligens overtar \u00abhardt arbeid\u00bb \u2013 beregninger, research, selv avansert koding \u2013 vil v\u00e5r egentlige verdi ligge i det maskiner ikke kan gjenskape: fantasi, kj\u00e6rlighet, lek, n\u00e6rv\u00e6r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Det er inspirasjons\u00f8konomien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspirasjon m\u00e5les ikke i timer \u2013 den m\u00e5les i innsikt. Mine beste ideer dukket aldri opp ved skrivebordet. De fant meg mens jeg gikk en tur, var p\u00e5 ferie, i stillhet \u2013 i Norge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">La barn v\u00e6re barn (og voksne v\u00e6re mennesker)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">California har nylig utvidet f\u00f8rskolen til \u00e5 omfatte tre\u00e5ringer. Det er et stort l\u00f8ft for arbeidende foreldre, s\u00e6rlig m\u00f8dre. I Norge kaller de det ikke utdanning \u2013 de kaller det <em>barndom<\/em>. Formell undervisning begynner f\u00f8rst som seks\u2011 eller sju\u00e5ring. F\u00f8r det klatrer barna i tr\u00e6r, utforsker naturen og bygger sin indre kompass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeg frykter at vi i USA floker sn\u00f8rene altfor tidlig. F\u00f8rskole b\u00f8r ikke v\u00e6re en r\u00f8rledning til doktorgrad og en AI\u2011sikker karriere. Den b\u00f8r v\u00e6re en tid for \u00e5 knytte b\u00e5nd \u2013 til seg selv, til andre \u2013 uten d\u00f8mming og konkurranse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To framtider, ett valg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noen nyutdannede vil g\u00e5 inn i det jeg kaller <em>slit\u00ad\u00f8konomien<\/em> \u2013 drevet av kunnskap, prestasjon, analyser. Den veien er gyldig. Men etter hvert som maskiner blir bedre, vil de konkurrere med verkt\u00f8y som aldri sover eller feiler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andre \u2013 som datteren min \u2013 velger en annen sti, bygget p\u00e5 hensikt, lek, n\u00e6rv\u00e6r. Dette er femten\u2011timers\u2011arbeiderne Keynes dr\u00f8mte om. De vil leve enkelt, arbeide dypt og skape fra indre overflod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Begge veier eksisterer. Vi m\u00e5 respektere begge. Men vi m\u00e5 slutte \u00e5 d\u00f8mme dem som velger mindre forbruk, mer fritid, mer lys. De er ikke late; de leder an.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">L\u00e6rdom fra Agile\u202fSix<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hos Agile\u202fSix har vi l\u00e6rt at folk ikke jobber samme antall timer \u2013 eller p\u00e5 samme m\u00e5te. Noen jobber mer, andre mindre. Noen drives av inspirasjon, andre av rytme. Men alle blomstrer best n\u00e5r de f\u00e5r tillit, autonomi og rom til \u00e5 puste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Du kan ikke m\u00e5le verdi kun i tid.
