WIRED wants to hear how YOU want to work
Deciding when, where, and for whom you work used to be a far-fetched dream. But as we live in a more collaborative, connected, and digital world, more and more want the freedom and flexibility to create their ideal work situation. Top-talent is looking for a new type of work experience and is not satisfied with the status quo. As a result, the employer-employee relationship is shifting.
“Talented people need organizations less than organizations need talented people.”
Dan Pink
A shift in power
While the promise of job security previously placed control in the hands of companies, the power dynamic has flipped. In order to attract and retain top talent, organizations are forced to rethink what they can offer potential talent besides a job and a paycheck. They are taking a critical look at its processes, offerings and culture.
This desire to revolutionize work in order to stay relevant amidst a changing economy and a workforce with radically different needs, conversations have emerged around the globe. The future of work is discussed at length by economists, organizational psychologists, human resource professionals and C-suite management, but what about you, the actual talent?
The ForeWork Initiative
In order to add next generation’s voice to the conversation, jovoto founded the ForeWork Initiative in partnership with adidas, Cisco and Vitra. ForeWork was created with the intention of connecting the desires and concerns of creatives, innovators, entrepreneurs and young professionals with organizational changemakers. ForeWork is a platform supporting young talent as they shape their own future.
To spotlight how you want to work, ForeWork has teamed-up with WIRED. Inspired by WIRED’s commitment to “the people and ideas changing our world,” ForeWork is excited to offer up-and-coming talent the space to “think big” and have their voices heard by organizational management, thought leaders and changemakers from around the world.
How YOU want to work
Whether you’re thinking of a new progressive policy, an idea for a bold company commitment, a mutually-beneficial organizational hack, or some other radical new way of working — push the limits of what is already out there.
Communicate your groundbreaking idea in newsworthy fashion. As WIRED magazine has several components, ForeWork encourages you to submit your vision in the way that works best for you. Whether that’s a written article, an illustration, a concept map, design, etc., this is about you so leverage the medium of your choice.
Join the conversation
To become a part of the conversation, join the jovoto community and submit your vision for the future of work.
When you share your concepts and content, you will have your submissions reviewed by international thought leaders, WIRED editors, and potentially published in the ForeWork report. As a thank you, you could earn one of the awards from the €20.000 total award pool or other cool prizes like a 2-week coliving experience.
Additionally, ForeWork will host its partners in Berlin for a two-day co-creation Workshop. You could be chosen to present your idea and collaborate with leadership from organizations like adidas, Cisco and Vitra.

I’ve been nomading (backpacking) around the world for more than 3 years and I tried bunch of different events or coworkings for digital nomads. Coboat definitely stands out from the crowd because it’s 2in1. It’s unique concept of coworking space & event on the boat. I had a great time and I learned a lot from other people and coboat / sailing experience itself.
Since, I’m used to hostels and backpacking lifestyle + I’m relatively young, I did not struggle with sharing, lack of privacy or other little things (standards) which other people mind find uncomfortable but only until they realize that magic happens out of comfort zone.
“Coboat is like a hostel room filled with 12 SUPER-SMART people ready to collaborate!”
Here are few things I found the most valuable:
1. Limitations can be good for productivity
I was definitely coming to take a break from work and wasn’t planning to spend much time on my laptop. I was not only limited by data (like everybody else) but also by my “not working” laptop battery. In the FREE time, I wrote down to do notes and planned what I’m going to do when I connect to electricity. On my phone, I went through all emails, to do lists and I sorted all distracting stuff, such as, FB messanger, chats, notifications, junk emails, etc. in advance.
When the “work time” came up I’ve done my stuff done very fast. I was forced to focus and I had “distractions” sorted already. I realized, I can easily apply this into my work routine everyday!
2. The power of collaboration
Collaboration on the smaller scale is very effective and nobody was left out. We managed to have plenty of personally oriented sessions, depending if you wanted to share some knowledge or get feedback on something you struggling with. In my case it was my “lack of productivity”. I enjoyed the feedback & given advice for sure!
Some collaborations last for longer. I started running “tandem productivity skype sessions” with Joe, CEO of BrainHive, throw few “feedback chats” with Christoph founder of betahaus and also wrote this post for coboat.org.
3. Sense of our community
The project itself is well known among digital nomads or location independent community. We had plenty of talks about this type of lifestyle as well and it was very interesting to hear all other opinions since our group was quite diverted. The term “digital nomad” is definitely becoming less and less trendy but the community is just starting to grow.
4. Ocean is full of ideas
There is something magical when it comes to the ocean. When I was sitting on deck and listening to music, I was getting tons of new / great ideas which I wrote down to my phone. I could even direct that flow in my head to some topics (tasks) I needed to. For example: I needed fresh ideas for one of my articles about inspiring travel quotes! Well, I got plenty. When I travel in the bus or train and I look out of the window, I get that flow also but sitting on the deck of sailing boat is way different level when it comes to creativity.
5. Sailing experience
One of the reasons why I decided to go for coboat sailing trip was because I never tried sailing before. It was very exciting to get to know some of the rules, winds, currents and all the other details related to this amazing hobby.
