It used to be the case that staff worked the way they were told to by their employers. It was therefore the objectives of the organisation – efficiency, in most cases – that defined the working style of the majority.
Now, though, the way we work is subject to all manner of influences. Organisations that wish to design engaging and productive working environments for their employees must understand those forces, and react accordingly.

Enterprise learning is in a state of flux, more so than usual, thanks in no small part to technology. The possibilities can seem endless and somewhat overwhelming given the pace at which new technologies seems to roll up to our doorstep. In fact, much of the technology we are grappling with today forces us to think about fundamentally changing the way we deliver learning in our organizations.
Join Brandon Hall Group Senior Analyst David Wentworth and Charles DeNault, Saba's Senior Director of Product Marketing as they discuss emerging and evolving trends in learning and technology, examine what companies are actually doing today, and bring some clarity to what the future may hold.
We expect this session to be highly interactive with lots of input from attendees around what they see happening with learning in the future. Takeaways include:
Social and collaborative learning
Mobile technology

The Current IT Labor Ecosystem | WhitepaperACTIVE Network
In the long history of labor forces, there perhaps has never been a more in-demand and competitive candidate pool than today’s technology workers. While this candidate-driven market is driving technology innovation, it is also placing added pressure on IT hiring managers to not only stay consistently engaged in the hiring process, but also to continue to offer increasingly lucrative compensation packages, engaging projects and a compelling corporate culture in order to remain competitive in the current IT hiring ecosystem.
Summary: Even in a time of high biopharma valuations, adopting an activist mentality adds rigor to capital allocation and strategic decision-making, improving not just returns to shareholders but long-term value creation. Therefore, biopharma management teams and boards of directors should proactively assess the “fitness” of their capital allocation strategies and their alignment with operational performance goals by taking an outsider’s view of the business even when times are good — and before a material stumble provides a compelling reason for an outsider to act.

In today’s digital age, business practices are shifting from batch to real-time, retrospective to predictive, desktop to mobile, and corporate-driven to people-centric. HR leaders recognize that traditional approaches need to be recalibrated to drive higher levels of employee engagement and better alignment of talent practices with the growth strategy of the organization. Talent acquisition, performance management, and employee engagement are key areas that must be addressed as companies modernize their HR systems and revise their overall approach to managing people.
Join guest speaker Paul Hamerman, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Forrester Research to learn how HR is adapting to the digital age. In this webinar, you will learn how organizations are:
Driving business results with continuous employee performance as an alternative to the annual performance review
Driving higher levels of employee engagement by focusing on six key engagement levers
Transforming talent acquisition by focusing on the candidate experience
Modernizing traditional HR systems to leverage the benefits of cloud and digital experiences.
THE TRADITIONAL WORKPLACE, AS WE'VE KNOWN IT, DOESN'T EVEN EXIST TODAY.
The explosion of new technologies, mass adoption of social channels, ubiquity of mobile and connectivity, and proliferation of devices continue to drive massive transformation, but at what cost? How can large organizations collaborate, integrate, and innovate quickly enough to survive at the speed of their customers? What are the questions we could or should be asking to really make changes for work that make sense?
The answers lie only in bringing the brightest minds together to figure it out.

7 Ways Soft-Skills Power Organizational PerformanceBambooHR
Succeeding in today's increasingly competitive global landscape calls for our organizations to leverage everything they can, and increasingly, that leverage is coming down to your employees' soft skills.
But while it's easy (well, easier) to measure and hire for hard-skills competency, it's very difficult to recognize and hire for soft skills. And once hired, it becomes even more of a task to build these soft skills in our employees.
In this slideshare we'll take a hard look at the soft skills that really enable organizations to succeed. From recruiting to learning and development and performance management to the exit interview, we'll show how soft-skills focus can dramatically impact your company's bottom line.
In this slideshare, you will learn:
• Soft skills: What are they anyway?
• Soft skills and recruiting: The secret to successful hires
• What the bottomline results are for soft skills
• How to teach, measure, and mentor soft skills

Does Living Near An NFL Stadium Boost Your Home Value?Trulia
Neighborhoods around National Football League stadiums tend to have homes that are more expensive both in sales and rental value, but new stadiums built in the last decade, by and large, have failed to lift the fortunes of homes in nearby areas.
In other words, owning a home near a stadium is nice, but if they build one down the street, don’t get your hopes up. During the last 10 years, five new pro football stadiums have opened and none, so far, has had a noticeable impact in raising home values in its immediate vicinity (a two mile radius).

Influencing Higher Education to Create the Future DevOps Workforce
Charles Betz, Coordinator, Minnesota State Digital Curricula Initiative
"Where will we find the talent?"
The feedback loops are slow for higher education, and institutions are only now beginning to respond to the opportunities of DevOps. How can we accelerate this process?
This fast-paced talk will cover both macro- and micro-scale efforts. Over the summer, 11 faculty from Minnesota teaching colleges worked with industry thought leaders to draft a report, “Digital Curricula: Toward next-generation IT education.” The report (including a survey on current digital workforce) compiled hundreds of learning objectives from leading digital and DevOps practices, for instructors and commercial trainers around the world to use in course development.
This report (free and sponsored by the Advance-IT Center of Excellence in the Minnesota State University System) is being distributed this October to hundreds of computing and IT faculty across the 6th-largest education system in the U.S. and will be presented here for the first time to an industry audience.
As a worked example at the course level, the University of St. Thomas offers a survey course on IT delivery, using a “flipped model” with recorded lectures and experiential labs. An open source, 8-node, software-defined virtual cluster based on open technologies is used to illustrate continuous delivery, infrastructure automation, and Agile concepts for the course’s 12 open source lab sessions, as well as collaborative topics such as product management, work management, and operations. Come hear discussion of the motivations, teaching philosophy, technical practices, and results of this pioneering course.

Strengthening the connection between technical education and employmentMozammel Hoque
Changing the current nature of work/job rely on multi-level competencies though till now for many students and families, technical education is still considered as the path to a better future. In this seminar it is intended to demonstrate what approach could be followed by teachers-students and planners in order to meet the labor market.
It is all agreed that High-level Competency: a critical asset for Individuals, Businesses, and Country are the means of economic growth. We can attain it by linking Technical Education with Employment that must meet the labor market needs, which in turns meeting the strategic options of the poverty reduction agenda of the government. Hence STEP - Skills and Training Enhancement Project was adopted in 2010 through TVET - Technical and Vocational Education and Training system. Skill competition is one of many ways to promote TVET. “How can this Competence be generated by the Technical Education System?” is going to be disclosed here.
The Unequal Race for Good Jobs: How Whites Made Outsized Gains in Education a...CEW Georgetown
White workers have used historical educational and economic privileges to build disproportionate advantages in the educational pipeline and the workforce that will continue to last for decades, according to new research from the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce (CEW) in partnership with JPMorgan Chase & Co. Black and Latino workers, on the other hand, face discrimination, racism, and other injustices that perpetuate inequities in education and the economy. The Unequal Race for Good Jobs: How Whites Made Outsized Gains in Education and Good Jobs Compared to Blacks and Latinos explores how the distribution of good jobs across educational attainment levels varies by race and ethnicity.

Balancing Work and Learning: Implications for Low-Income StudentsCEW Georgetown
Balancing Work and Learning: Implications for Low-Income Students finds that while working and studying generally helps students from higher-income families, low-income students face steeper challenges when combining work and college.
To untangle today’s college and career maze, new research from the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, "Five Rules of the College and Career Game" shows that college is less about what college you go to and what degree you get but more about the returns of individual college programs.
Women Can’t Win: Despite Making Educational Gains and Pursuing High-Wage Majo...CEW Georgetown
Women Can’t Win: Despite Making Educational Gains and Pursuing High-Wage Majors, Women Still Earn Less than Men explores the complex set of reasons that have kept the gender wage gap in place. Even when comparing men and women who have equal educational attainment and work in the same occupation, women still earn only 92 cents for every dollar earned by men.
The blue-collar economy conjures images of shuttered factories and the disappearance of good jobs. Those images reflect the suffering among blue-collar workers left behind by the shift away from an economy based in manufacturing, but they do not tell the whole story. In fact, we find that there are still 30 million good jobs that do not require a Bachelor’s degree. These good jobs pay an average of $55,000 per year, and a minimum of $35,000
annually.
Latino Education and Economic Progress: Running Faster but Still BehindCEW Georgetown
Latino Education and Economic Progress: Running Faster but Still Behind reveals that lagging college degree attainment has led Latinos to become stuck in the middle-wage tiers of the labor market. The report also finds that obtaining a college degree remains a challenge, with only 21% of Latinos having a bachelor’s degree.
Good Jobs That Pay without a B.A.: A State-by-State Analysis CEW Georgetown

The ongoing policy debate about the best way forward with healthcare reform has left out a major group of professionals central to making the system work—nurses. Nursing: Can It Remain a Source of Upward Mobility Amidst Healthcare Turmoil? finds that a college education is key to upward mobility in the profession. The report also reveals a lack of diversity among nurses remains a challenge.

The 20% Solution: Selective Colleges Can Afford to Admit More Pell Grant Reci...CEW Georgetown
The 20% Solution: Selective Colleges Can Afford to Admit More Pell Grant Recipients finds that if every college was required to have at least 20 percent Pell Grant recipients, nearly 79,000 more Pell students would have to be admitted to 349 colleges and universities, half of which are selective colleges. Some selective colleges have suggested that Pell Grant recipients do not gain admittance because they would not be able to keep up with the workload. However, the Georgetown Center report finds that 78 percent of Pell recipients who attend selective colleges and universities graduate, while their chances to complete diminish to 53 percent at open-access colleges.
America's Divided Recovery: College Haves and Have-NotsCEW Georgetown
Over 95 percent of jobs created during the recovery have gone to college-educated workers, while those with a high school diploma or less are being left behind. America’s Divided Recovery: College Haves and Have-Nots reveals that those with at least some college education have captured 11.5 million of the 11.6 million jobs created during the recovery.
While jobs are back, they are not the same jobs lost during the recession. The Great Recession decimated low-skill blue-collar and clerical jobs, whereas the recovery added primarily high-skill managerial and professional jobs.
The Midwest Challenge: Matching Jobs with Education in the Post-Recession Eco...CEW Georgetown
This report finds that the twelve Midwestern states are no longer dependent on manufacturing. New jobs in the region will be in high-skill service industries such as education and healthcare.
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics workers are the source of growth and innovation, but meeting the economy's demand for these critical skills will be challenging.
