This book is concerned with the rapid and varied changes in the
nature of work and work relationships which have taken place in
recent years. While technological innovation has been a key
contributor to the nature and pace of change, other social and
market trends have also played a part such as increasing workforce
diversity, enhanced competition and greater global integration.
Responding to these trends alongside cost pressures and the need
for continued responsiveness to the environment, organizations have
changed the way in which work is organized. There have also been
shifts in product markets with growing demand for authenticity and
refinement of the customer experience which has further
implications for how work is organized and enacted. At the same
time, employees have sought changes in their work arrangements in
order to help them achieve a more satisfactory relationship between
their work and non-work lives. Many have also taken increased
responsibility for managing their own work opportunities, moving
away from dependency on a single employer. The implications of
these significant and widespread changes are the central focus of
this book and in particular the implications for workers, managers,
and organizations. It brings together contributions from an
international team of renowned management scholars who explore the
opportunities and challenges presented by technological and digital
innovation, consumer, social and organizational change. Drawing on
empirical evidence from Europe, North America and Australia, Work,
Working and Work Relationships in a Changing World considers new
forms of service work, technologically enabled work and independent
professionals to provide in-depth insight into work experiences in
the 21st Century.
