During the last decade, the workspace has undergone dramatic change. But this is nothing compared to how new organisational structures will impact the work environment towards 2020. Let’s look into the trends that will have the biggest impact on our ways of working.
Our ways of working have changed for many different reasons. We have become wealthier; consumers are demanding new types of products and services which in turn require new production methods; and we are constantly seeking to increase productivity which challenges how we organise our work.
Nonetheless, there are four megatrends, which go beyond the aforementioned reasons that have a profound impact on how we work: the rise of knowledge workers, the advent of IT and mobile devices, a new generation of workers - Generation X and Generation Y, and finally the demands of globalisation.
