Mass Career Customization: Aligning the Workplace With Today’s
Nontraditional Workforce
In a time when you can select your own music playlists, align your
credit card billing cycle with your cash flow, and order M&Ms®
with custom slogans and colors, it is really no surprise that
today’s workers are seeking careers that provide rich options
beyond the traditional ladder climbing.
Sweeping changes in demographics, attitudes, and family structures
have been redefining the workforce for more than two decades — yet
the workplace has remained much the same. Anne Weisberg, author of Mass
Career Customization: Aligning the Workplace with Today’s
Nontraditional Workforce, discusses the need for a shift in
corporate attitudes to better suit the increasingly diverse
workforce.
In these uncertain times, maintaining industry advantage depends on
keeping employees engaged and connected. Mass Career Customization
provides a solution for organizational adaption that will do just
that.
