This book examines the impact of the digital deluge on employees
and organizations and sets out the leadership actions needed to
create a corporate culture fit for the digital age. In the digital
world executives are presented with exponentially more information
than their predecessors were a generation ago - and yet we're not
exponentially more productive. Why? Because we're using
twenty-first century technology with a twentieth century mindset.
Excessive working hours, email overload and invasion of private
life are all symptoms of a working culture that has used technology
to simply amplify old management processes rather than enable and
refine newer, more productive ones. Instead of liberating us,
technology has created a digital overload, accentuating the
problems of presenteeism, unreasonable deadlines and management
demands. Organizations need to stop using technology to turn up the
volume and start using it to change the channel. Written by a
unique team of experts, this edited collection covers leadership,
corporate culture, technology, wellness and workplace design. It
argues that digital overload is a problem of corporate culture and
a failure of leadership. As such it takes leadership to fix it.
Leaders who have the courage to explore alternative ways of working
with technology, the enlightenment to give employees more freedom
and control over their own lives, and the humility to live and
demonstrate the new culture personally. Those who do this have the
power to transform their organizations so they can ride the digital
wave rather than be swamped by it.
