Managing Dynamic Work Environments

MAL023

Course Description

Imagine you went to sleep and woke up to a work day in 1960. How different is your work life today, compared to what it was 40 years ago? Clearly, there would not be a Starbucks on every corner or a cell phone in every pocket—but what else has changed and why?

In today’s world, the structure, content, and process of work have changed. Work is now more cognitively complex, more team-based and collaborative, more dependent on social skills, more dependent on technological competence, more dependent on technological competence, more time pressured, and more mobile and less dependent on geography.

In today’s world, you will also be working for an organization that is likely to be very different due to competitive pressures and technological breakthroughs. Organizations today are leaner and more agile, more focused on identifying value from the customer perspective, more tuned to dynamic competitive requirements and strategy, and less hierarchical in structure and decision authority.
