I believe that in the next 50 years the concept of large corporate employing people will die, the combination of all the 30 something being made redundant, the realisation that their experience is now becoming a major commodity and their need to balance work and life will stop them looking for full time jobs. They will only want contract jobs or treat fulltime jobs as contracts.
I therefore hope that the successful corporates of the future will be large groupings of people that form into work based communities as and when the need arises. I hope the days of the large corporate employing thousands of people will be gone in the next 100 years! I don?t they will have a choice; the best people will simply not take a fulltime job.
