The Future of Work Is Through Workforce Ecosystems
Workforce ecosystems can help leaders better manage changes driven by technological, social, and economic forces.
MIT SMR and Deloitte continue their research on the future of workforce for a second consecutive year in 2021.
In 2020, the research team focused on opportunity marketplaces: internal platforms that help organizations develop, engage, and retain talent. In 2021, the team is focused on workforce ecosystems: structures that consist of interdependent actors, from within the organization and beyond, working to pursue both individual and collective goals.
Workforce ecosystems can help leaders better manage changes driven by technological, social, and economic forces.
Redesigning jobs should be seen as a process that enables work to be redefined to create new value.
