Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach is constantly seeking information on new trends, new technology, new insights and new paradigms to share with clients, prospects, friends, colleagues and others. The dynamics of our workplace today is truly astounding. We look at the face of our workforce and see four generations in the workplace. And each generation has different characteristics that present strategic information on how they work, how they communicate, how they think, how they define their values system, and so on.
Recently I read an article in one of my colleague’s, Dr. Ira Wolfe’s (www.super-solutions.com weekly newsletter, “The Total View Newsletter” (www.super-solutions.com that attracted my attention. Ira was looking at the workforce in 2010 and listing the changing career paradigms we can anticipate to take place. There are twelve of these paradigm shifts listed by Dr. Wolfe. They are:
OLD PARADIGM: Job Security NEW PARADIGM: Employability Security OLD PARADIGM: Longitudinal Career Paths NEW PARADIGM: Alternate Career Paths OLD PARADIGM: Job/Person Fit NEW PARADIGM: Person/Organization Fit OLD PARADIGM: Organization loyalty NEW PARADIGM: Job/Task Loyalty OLD PARADIGM: Career Success NEW PARADIGM: Work/Family Balance OLD PARADIGM: Academic Degree NEW PARADIGM: Continuous Relearning OLD PARADIGM: Position/Title NEW PARADIGM: Competencies/Development OLD PARADIGM: Full-Time Employment NEW PARADIGM: Contract Employment OLD PARADIGM: Retirement NEW PARADIGM: Career Sabbaticals OLD PARADIGM: Single Jobs/Careers NEW PARADIGM: Multiple Jobs/Careers OLD PARADIGM: Change in jobs based on fear NEW PARADIGM: Change in jobs based on growth OLD PARADIGM: Promotion tenure based NEW PARADIGM: Promotion performance based I encourage you to read each of these very carefully and consider the impact each will have on you and your business. My recommendation is to use some solid strategic thinking in gaining critical insights from each of these paradigm shifts that you can use to give you and your company a competitive advantage.
These twelve paradigm shifts can and will really turn the face of your workforce around in many directions. Gaining advance knowledge and insights into these shifts will better prepare you to compete in the next decade and beyond. I promise these paradigm shifts will change the way you do business and if you are not prepared to deal with these shifts and see the opportunities that lie within them, you will be out of business sooner than you imagine.
