The employee, not your product, will be the key to your future organization. Business writers present a one-sided story about modern employee demands of the organization. Books are replete with examples of better work/life balance, better management behavior, and increased reward systems. These are all traditional views of the employee/company relationship as seen from the employee side. There is a storm on the horizon. Let me take the company side of the situation for a moment in an attempt to present a balanced view. Someone better alert the employees that a new age of relationships is dawning.
The tempo is not going to slow. Requirements are not going to be reduced. Resources will never be abundant. And it is going to get worse. As the business plan puts all the pieces into place for authority, accountability, and responsibility, there will be major shift on who picks up the pieces. The new organizational structure will place certain demands on the employee never before experienced in business. The employee will act as the core from which all activities revolve, and this carries inherent responsibilities.
A fast-tracking company and client of mine put an even more powerful and aggressive business plan in place over a three-year period. Then the company brought up the skill and competencies requirements for all three levels of management and supervision to match the strategic requirements. Over time individual managers fell by the wayside. Some didn’t have the ability to grasp and apply the concepts of the new business models. Others chose to remain in the relatively catatonic state of mediocre performance, thinking the efforts were just another management fad.
