How to Manage Your Workforce in the Digital Age (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Technological developments, digital disruption and the changing nature of work are issues that are front and centre in the contemporary business landscape, causing organisations to review their business models. Changes to the business model means changes to the shape of the workforce. It is mission-critical to anticipate how changing strategies and business models will alter an organisation's workforce requirements. Hence the imperative is to adopt a more strategic approach to workforce management:
- Starting with an understanding of the legacy (existing) workforce; 

- Then identifying the new processes, organisational structures, skills and capability requirements; and
- Ultimately transitioning to the new workforce configuration. 

Apart from these technological developments, digital disruption and the changing nature of work, there are a number of other drivers of the need for Strategic Workforce Planning.
Hence the application of Strategic Workforce Planning is now a key emerging 
issue in the new economy, including the extended roles of the CIO and HR Director/Manager. Many organisations are, or will be, entering uncharted waters. Some are faced with enacting a parallel (or two speed) organisation, which is dynamic enough to transact today, as well as build for the future. 

To that end this book is designed to assist executives and HR professionals in navigating this digital journey. Even those organisations less affected by digital disruption, they will find this book relevant to how they best manage their workforce.
