Emerging Forms of Organizations Changing Concept of Productivity Synopsis of Change Some Key Characteristics of the Competitive Business Environment Technology

Emerging Forms of Organizations


Organizations undergoing tremendous changes Smaller companies coming up that employ fewer people. The shift from vertically integrated hierarchies to networks of specialists. Technicians, replacing manufacturing operatives as the worker elite. Pay tied to the market value of the skills and not to a person s position or tenure in the organization. A change in the paradigm of doing business from making a product to providing a service. The redefinition of work itself: constant learning, more higher- order thinking, less nine-to-five mentality.

Emerging Forms of Organizations


Virtual organization or corporation: Teams of specialists come
together to work on a project and disband after finishing. Virtual workplace: Work anytime anywhere in real space or cyberspace. Modular corporation: Focus on a few core competencies, those a company does best e.g. designing and marketing computers and outsourcing rest e.g. electronics and apparel or anticraft industry. If design and marketing are core competencies then manufacturing or service units are modular components like one used in a childs logo set. Example apparels & electronics industry. FOCUS ON A CORE COMPETENCY OUTSOURCING THE REST

Changing Concept of Productivity


P= Output (goods & services) Input (labor, material & equipment). Getting more out of what is put in. To do more with less - fewer people, less money, less time, less space and fewer resources. Smart working and not hard working.
