Summary
The sharing economy (aka shared economy) has made growth revolution in the last decade or so by disrupting a variety of mature industries (e.g., hospitality and tourism, automotive and real estate) and even transforming their structures (Dadwal et al, 2020; Frenken & Schor, 2019; Schor, 2016; Schor & Cansoy, 2019). The sharing orientation allows service providers to offer conveniently accessible and cost-efficient resources to its customers without creating any social, emotional or financial burden of ownership (Frenken & Schor, 2019; Hamari et al, 2016). The sharing economy has spawned the global online marketplace in a variety of industries including high-tech where knowledge based-work is creating higher pays for the gig workers (Frenken & Schor, 2019; Hamari et al, 2016). Deloitte’s recent report on the Global Human Capital Trends shows that the gig workers have become the mainstream talent, as organizations search more strategically in the tightening talent markets to embrace high-level work through alternative workforce (Volini et al, 2019)
