As mobile technologies continue to liberate us from specific locations and time restrictions, it becomes less important where, when and how work is done. This ultimately will change how people moving around in cities. Some will work from home,others will go to the office and still others may prefer to sit at a café. Telecommuting... Continue Reading →
The office is dead – long live the exchange place!
The office space is changing and I don't thing we understand the impact of that change. It will change how we organize work. I have a new post on the topic at the Networked Society blog >>> https://videopress.com/v/aMSgZKZu?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true
Working life as we know it is changing dramatically
A few days ago I wrote a new post on how working life is changing as we enter the Networked Society and eight areas that we will see more of at work. Read the post at the Networked Society blog >>>

We call them the Game Changers, and we found out that they organize their work using ten different networked organizational forms (see image). These ways of organizing work is used within any field of creativity; from fashion... Continue Reading →
