14. The Nature of Work is
Changing
• Past
– Full-time
– Paid for time spent at
work
– Common location
– Stable hierarchies
– What & how they do
their jobs is prescribed
– Evaluated by superiors
• Future
– Decentralized
– No particular time or
place
– Beyond cognitive
competencies
– Jobs reflect way of life
