Organization Next: Managing The Networked Workspace
Social, economic, environmental, and technological forces continuously transform the relationship between organizations and employees. The traditional “workplace” is disappearing, courtesy of globalization, communications, the consumerization of IT, and recent market upheavals. In its place is a “workspace” that is more social, more virtual and more mobile. This new workspace is also more transitory, as employees skeptical of lifetime employment find themselves increasingly joined by contingent staff and outsourcing partners. Also – given the ascent of a new generation of workers raised in this connected, global reality – we can no longer rely on old assumptions on how work best gets done.
The type of agility necessary to achieve breakthrough levels of innovation and growth will rely on people and the ability of the organization to leverage the network of relationships that inter-connect them. Leadership teams must develop collaborative operating models responsive to market and stakeholder needs – including those of its “employees”. Such transformation creates an environment where people are managed not by sight, but by trust and commitment.
If you are involved in business transformation, strategic talent initiatives, organizational development and learning strategies, or any role involved in human capital management and employee engagement, this webcast is for you!
Don’t miss these webcast takeaways:
- How should my organization position and ready itself for change?
- What type of capabilities and collaborative operating models are needed?
- How can the strengths each generation brings be leveraged?
- How can communities and social networking contribute towards a more agile and high-performing organization?
- What role will technology play in this transformation?
This is the great opportunity that most people should take advantage of.
