It’s Time For Change!
The preasure is mounting for companies across the United States and around the world to really change their way of doing business, dramatically! Organizations are in turmoil. Consumer’s are not spending unless it is something they need. Our government is providing funding to companies that have old business models that don’t work.
It is time to take a new look at business and how to structure it for success into the future. The Command and Control, heirarchical structure will not win in today’s environment. Collaberative and smart organizations will be the winners going forward. One’s that can figure out what is needed in the consumption environment and bring those products and services to light at the lowest cost possible.
There will be a need for a new work environment Companies need to look at new options that bring the total employee into the work situation recognizing that they are not one person at work and another person at home. Organizations need to look at the total individual to gain the maximum in productivity. Not only what skills does this person will bring to their company but also what does this person need from a personal perspective? What life experiences do they have? Who do they know, both personally and professionally? In the future workplace, the employees that will be hired into an organization need to be a perfect match from a cultural, skills, and personal perspective.
To keep the absolute best employee who is going to provide output and benefit, companies will need to consider the total employee. What are their needs from a work style and home life perspective? How do we capitalize on their strengths and get them involved in what they do best? No longer do we have the time or money to work on weaknesses. Let’s face it… if it is a weakness, then it is not worth forcing on an employee. Focus instead on the strengths that, that employee brings to the work environment. There will be a larger ROI which is what all companies need right now because the employee is happier and ultimately more productive.
