 Change ManagementStrategies for a Change Responsive Workforce
Within the span of a decade, the breadth of change, the magnitude of change and the rate of change all have increased exponentially. The resulting impact is all pervasive, affecting the lives of individuals, organizations, communities and institutions as never before. Nowhere has the impact been felt more than in the modern workforce.
Around the world, millions of jobs and tasks done one way yesterday now need to be done differently today - no exceptions, no excuses. Changes in strategies, business models, products, technologies and markets send ripples through the workplace. Mergers and acquisitions, hiring trends, downsizing and globalization send shockwaves. No organisation goes untouched.
