How are you seeing careers and their progression in todays (2022) era of hybrid working?
Are you adapting your career model to a lattice or hybrid model? What are the issues you are facing and why?
In my view as more and more work moves to knowledge working the requirement of place and time shift and change from the previous ear of work (IR1.0 and IR2.0) where most work was routine and place bound. Today over 60% or work is no longer place or time bound as previously bringing with it a new set of issues, such as
- personalisation of a career
- individualised pathways of learning and skills needed
- a more flexible approach to what a career is and what it means (like work, participation and life)
- an increasingly collaborative and team based experience
- and more cross functional project related work
There are implications on how leaders and managers behaviours will need to change and the increased use of internal talent marketplaces to allow for the flexible deployment of talent and to meet career aspirations by providing opportunities to learn and experience. The need to instil psychological safety in the organisation to enhance the contribution of employees and finally how people will be rewarded in this new work /career landscape.
What are your views and experiences in this transformation of work?
