In the old workplace, we expected the work we did to stay the same. Change happened when we changed our jobs. In the new workplace, we can expect the work we do to continuously change in an ongoing effort to better serve our customers. We participate in a dynamic, never ending process of learning.
The skills we need in the new workplace have changed dramatically. The expectations employers and employees have of each other would not be recognizable to our parents. Opportunity competes with fear as our organizations down-size or transform and we each struggle with the new realities and how we fit into them.
This extraordinary 2-video training series brings together a distinguished collection of practitioners and researchers who are leading private and public sector organizations through these fundamental transformations. CEO's, managers, line workers and consultants discuss why these changes are occurring and how they impact employees and managers alike, sharing their visions of how we can most benefit from the turbulence we find ourselves in.
Series Objectives
The New Workplace has been designed to promote thinking and discussion in a wide range of work environments, including public and private sector organizations large and small. If a company or agency is facing change processes stemming from technological advances, global competition, downsizing and/or a stronger focus on meeting customer needs, it can benefit from this training resource.

Each of the programs, Making the Change (for all employees) and Leading the Change (for organizational leaders), are divided into major concept themes, and each of the segments are tied together by an animated folktale. With both videos, a distinguished collection of practitioners and researchers - leaders on change - join in conversation with CEO's, managers, line workers and consultants. They share their vision of how we can most benefit from the turbulent process we find ourselves in.
