Biography
Stephen Carradini researches the future of work, looking for sustainable ways to organize work in the contemporary moment, near future, and beyond. His theoretical lens of workplace communication allows for interpretation of current work habits and co-construction of future work habits with an eye toward personal, economic, and community well-being. Individuals in arts-related micro-enterprises, particularly musicians, are his current area of focus.
The interdisciplinary training he received in the Communication, Rhetoric, and Digital Media program at North Carolina State University gives him an interest in collaboration across many fields to answer complex questions about the future of work and related issues. He teaches online professional communication in the Technical Communication program.
