Massive layoffs, plant closings, cost cutting, and benefit slashing have created a climate of fear. From CEOs to middle managers to salespeople to factory workers to order-entry processors, employees at every level wonder, What will happen to my job? Do I have any security? Where have all the old rules gone? Job Shock describes the brave new world of work - a full-scale revolution that is changing the American economy from top to bottom. The early symptoms of this revolution maybe unsettling, but the future is overwhelmingly positive: a world where technologies empower the individual worker, bringing exciting opportunities and creativity to every career and destroying the rigid corporate structure that has ruled for more than a century. In this book, economic forecaster and best-selling author Harry Dent offers bold predictions about the next ten years and sound advice on how you can prepare. 0aOrganizational change. 0aCareer development. 0aManpower planning. 0aLabor supplyxEffect of automation on. 0aInformation technologyxManagement.
