This document explores possible futures for the workplace and people management in 2020. It identifies three plausible scenarios or "worlds" that may exist:
1. The "Blue World" where large corporations dominate society and take on prominent social roles.
2. The "Green World" where businesses are forced to change fundamentally due to environmental and social pressures.
3. The "Orange World" characterized by specialization and collaborative networks.

This document explores possible futures for the workplace and people management in 2020. It identifies three plausible scenarios for how organizations may operate - "Blue World," "Green World," and "Orange World" - and discusses the implications for human resources. Some key points:
1. Business models will change dramatically by 2020 due to factors like technology, globalization, and demographics, potentially leading to large corporations taking on social welfare roles or the rise of collaborative networks.
2. Managing people will be one of the greatest challenges for businesses as skills shortages increase and the boundaries between work and personal life blur with companies assuming more social responsibilities.
3. The role of human resources will undergo fundamental change and will either need to
In the Blue World, large corporations dominate the global economy and society. Corporations provide extensive services and benefits to employees, including healthcare, education, and housing. This high level of support leads to strong employee retention, but also creates a large divide between those who work for major corporations and those who do not. Corporations extensively measure and analyze employee performance, productivity, and engagement. Technology is deeply integrated into work and daily life. The role of HR evolves to focus on complex people analytics and segmentation strategies to maximize business performance through human capital management.

Leading the Virtual Workforce - Group Cohesion & Indvidual CommitmentPatrick Zientara
The document discusses the challenges of leading virtual teams where employees work remotely in different locations. It notes that while technology enables remote work, building trust and effective communication is difficult without face-to-face interaction. Surveys found that while executives see boundary-spanning as important for leadership, most feel ineffective at it. Leading virtual teams requires mastering traditional leadership skills as well as techniques for spanning distances. The framework emphasizes building group cohesion and individual commitment by supporting autonomy, relatedness, and competence.

3) The document provides examples from various companies to illustrate how each principle was applied in real change initiatives.
This document discusses research findings on gender differences in leadership advancement. The research found that while women make up over a third of managers, they are much less represented at higher levels of leadership. Women were also less likely than men to be identified as "high potentials" and participate in accelerated development programs. These findings suggest that organizational practices are stacking the development deck against women achieving the highest levels of leadership. Recommendations are provided for organizations to help women advance more equitably.
This document summarizes research from DDI's Global Leadership Forecast 2008|2009 that found women have not progressed as far up the management ladder as men. It explores why this is, such as lack of opportunities for high-potential programs, leadership transitions, and international experience. It also discusses how "safety in numbers" can help or hurt women's careers. The report then offers recommendations for organizations and women to help women advance, such as leadership development programs and sponsorship. The goal is to overcome discrimination holding women back and make better use of female talent.
This document discusses social recruitment on LinkedIn and strategies for using LinkedIn effectively. It notes that social recruitment requires developing deeper employee relationships online and offline. LinkedIn membership is dominated by technology and certain industries and demographics vary by region. Successful companies use LinkedIn to showcase their employee brand and talent to clients. Developing a LinkedIn strategy requires understanding trends, competitor practices, and customizing content, jobs, and company pages for local audiences while highlighting company culture and people.
With increasing globalisation, the need is greater than ever to have Leaders and Managers who are equipped with skills and cultural awareness to deal with the environment effectively - particularly when you consider remote teams are more common than ever. This paper starts the debate and provides some food for though.
Consultancy best practices and their advantagesemenac1
Consultancy services help businesses improve performance by analyzing problems and developing solutions. Consultants apply proven "best practices" by drawing on research and past successes. Hiring a consultancy allows a business to gain new perspectives and ideas beyond what they could achieve alone. This can help businesses address challenges more effectively and focus on core operations.

This document discusses aligning an organization's strategy and culture. It outlines three key ways to do this:
1. Aligning shared values, organizational messages, and desired behaviors to drive results. High performing companies clearly communicate their purpose and values throughout the organization.
2. Engaging and enabling employees to enhance performance. Organizations must ensure employees have what they need to do their jobs well and feel supported, not just motivated.
3. Challenging unwritten rules to enable transformation. Leaders must confront unhelpful cultural norms and behaviors internally to drive change.
The document discusses the changing role of human resource management (HRM) in modern organizations. It states that HRM must now focus on organizational outcomes like strategy execution, administrative efficiency, employee representation, and continuous transformation. Globalization, profitability through growth, technology, intellectual capital, and constant change are creating new challenges that require organizations to develop new capabilities. HRM has an opportunity to help organizations meet these challenges by becoming a strategic partner, optimizing work processes, championing employees, and enabling organizational agility and learning. The role of HRM is shifting from traditional activities like staffing to developing an organization's talent and culture to achieve competitive advantage.

11. Conclusion
The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot
learn, unlearn, and relearn” (Starke, Christ-Based Leadership, 2005, p.11).
The leader should understand the interaction between the organization’s operational practices and
the results generated by those practices.
The purpose of SL for future research is not to change how researchers currently approach the
topic, but to offer alternatives to make research more effective.
The goal is to provide new knowledge and offer alternative views to Servant Leadership trends.
Because of all the outsourcing, many employees feel like they are not really part of an organization.
Leaders of a company, organization or team, professional, or colleague, one of the best things we
can do today is create the feeling of reciprocity between the organization and the individuals.

Servant Leadership (SL) has been in the forefront of business theory for the past decade and yet has been little utilized to describe and analyze specific areas of the concerns of business today. Karakas (2007) explained that leadership in the 21st century must deal with problems of global uncertainty, chaos, innovation, change, dynamism, flux, speed, interconnectedness, and complexity therefore, the benefits of practicing servant leadership becomes a critical success factor in any business (Claiborne, 2010). This study will attempt to apply the theories of Servant Leadership to the concerns of outsourcing, internet-related business and the trends associated with the Baby Boomer generation.

Spears (1995, 1998) listed, for example, 10 characteristics of a servant leader drawn from Greenleaf’s writings, and Contee-Borders’s (2003) case study confirmed these characteristics as being critical to servant leadership at the below table:
