Open to Work: How to Get Ahead in the Age of AI

The general take

Aneesh Raman is proud of the work that went into "Open to Work" but emphasizes just how grueling the book-writing process was—he jokes that he'd actively try to talk people out of writing a book if they called him. While he expresses hope that the book helps readers at a fundamental level, the quote cuts off before fully capturing his complete vision for it.

About

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Work is changing for everyone, everywhere. Standing still isn't an option. Ryan Roslansky and Aneesh Raman, CEO and Chief Economic Opportunity Officer at LinkedIn, show you how to take control of this moment with clarity and confidence. The future of work is not a distant horizon. It is being built right now. While some of us are experimenting and adapting with AI, most of us are feeling anxious and uncertain, navigating rapid change with outdated playbooks. We're relying on old career advice that assumes the tasks you do at work are static, that the skills you learned in school last decades, and that success comes from moving up a predictable ladder. That's the old world of work, and it's on the way out. Open to Work offers a new path forward.

  “Well, thank you for saying that. Cause it is like, it's so hard to write a book that I've turned it from a noun to a verb. Like to book is really difficult. It's an intense endeavor. For anyone that ever wants to write a book, call me up. I will try and dissuade you with every solid argument I have. [...] And so our hope ultimately is that not only does it help you at a basic level, but it helps you by being really actionable.”
