This article reads like a covert ad for Upwork, a platform for hiring freelancers.
> C-suite executives, bringing in freelance talent into their workforce say freelancers are meeting productivity demands and often exceeding them, outpacing full-time employees.
> a fundamental shift in how we organize talent and work
> leveraging alternative talent pools
= "You should hire freelancers instead of full-time employees."
> outdated work models
