the new world of work

As the workplace becomes increasingly demanding, diverse and dispersed globally, the leader at the top will have to throw away the textbooks, un-learn the leadership styles of the 'command and control' era and embrace a radical, new world approach to leadership - 'co-ordinate and cultivate' today's new workforce.

Organisations are suddenly faced with a collision in the workplace: The Veterans, who, although rapidly diminishing in numbers are the epicentre of tradition, knowledge and experience; the Baby Boomers and Gen X who have lived through decades of overindulgence and luxury; then enter Generation Y, the child of the 'baby boomer' parent. Growing up in the most dynamic economy in the twentieth century they have been brought up to believe they can change the world. Optimistic, upbeat and filled with a sense of empowerment -- they are the new kids on the block and think they can achieve anything...or so their parents told them, taught they can do anything and don't settle for mediocrity - Richard Branson meets Paris Hilton.

Wow! Inspiring! But sadly. coming at a time when so many employers are using technology to TIGHTEN their grasp on employees instead of opening their hands and saying "Go create..." I hope your vision comes to pass!

Technology is creating changes that we would never have imagined a few decades ago. In my line of work (providing virtual office systems for business owners) I see many companies that follow the ideals shown in this video. Having access to cutting-edge technology that smooths the bumps in the road gives you more time and energy to create some truly fantastic things! Very inspiring video!
