Today’s workers are very different from those of previous generations. The rise of dual-income families, the shifting focus from work to the balance of work and family, and the rejection of typically defined corporate success models have resulted in a distinct change in people’s attitudes about work. 

What do all of these changes mean to the workplace? For employees, it means they want more flexibility and more choice when it comes to how and where they get their work done. For companies, it means adapting to this need for flexibility or risk losing their best workers. Flexibility can take many forms: it can be applied to work schedules, work setting, job design, career planning and many other aspects of business.

This executive briefing, Volume 2 in the Talent Market Series, focuses specifically on flexibility in work scheduling while:

• Exploring the impact of changing family patterns and how our next generation of leaders defines success
• Suggesting how to become more flexible while maintaining obligations
• Addressing some pointed questions about how a culture of flexibility and choice fits our organization
