It’s hard to monitor most work in the short term, so having the engagements be longer-term makes it possible to adjust job and compensation based on years’ of output rather than the latest delivery.
Fair point. I agree, I am exaggerating the effectiveness of certain elements. And downplaying the necessity of others.
Although, there’s an inherent survivorship bias to favour a longer-term contract, because we’ve never experienced an efficient short-term engagement model, at scale, before. But I do believe this adjustment buffer will shorten with time, as the tendency of finer hiring accelerates. And, short-term alignment and work efficiency will increase, as everyone adapts to a “faster” work culture.
