One very strong example of a well-being economy would be an economy which recognises that every job needs to give people the possibility of a sense of fulfillment, and a sense of personal growth. We're a long way away from that, but the debate is shifting.

In the latest conversation on the Exponential View podcast, you can hear me discuss the well-being economy, the meaning of work, and human-oriented technological change with Matthew Taylor, the Chief Executive of the Royal Society of Arts.
