The report "Trends in the economy, industry and
corporate life. Forecast for 2020 "describes the five economic trends,
which, in the opinion of the world's top management, will guide the work of the
companies and hence influence the demand for labor.
So, until 2020, the following factors will affect the
economy
The first -
globalization and redistribution of economic power towards the Asian countries,
especially India and China.
Second - demographic changes in all the world's population
and a qualitative change in the labor force. The average age of workers will be
more, and the women will be able to play in the economic life of a large part.
Third - growth and atomization of business units. At a time
when the divisions within the same company acquire more independence, to
establish effective interaction will be necessary to negotiate the ability,
willingness to compromise.
Fourth - the goods and services become more personalized.
So, when dealing with customers and the development of new products the company
will have to show some flexibility and a willingness to continuously improve.
Fifth - the highest added value will be achieved through
intellectual rather than material component. This means that any work will
require large expenditures of creative forces. Creativity will become more
important than the ability to follow the rules.
In line with these trends and will be in the next 15 years
to transform the company. As experts predict, survive in the competition will
be able to only those companies whose personnel will be adapted to the new
conditions.
The most valuable are the people who will be able to combine
the personal charm, creativity, flexibility, communication skills and ability
to solve problems for employers. To be successful, companies will have to
invest more in human resources and new technology, researchers believe. The
managers will value the ability to build relationships with people and
organizations.
Now companies are seeking to streamline its structure,
improve work efficiency, so from managers must have the ability to set goals
and gradually progress to achieve them. However, experts say, will soon enough
begin the war between the two companies for their valuable footage. Therefore,
managers who will be able to create a team and retain important employees will
be highly appreciated.
In fact, the psychological portrait of the candidate today
for many companies is no less important than the professional skills of the
candidate. Naturally, it is especially important for the service sector, where
the ability to be flexible and quick to compromise the success of the
operation.
No less important in the future will be an educational and
intellectual level of workers. It is clear that today companies are trying to
gain as much as possible capable staff, but in the future when the proportion
of intangible assets from the companies and the share of intelligent
manufacturing costs will rise, this demand will become increasingly important.
Moreover, it will spread to a growing number of workers. If now the staff at
the grassroots positions or production are not required to understand the processes
occurring in the company, then, according to experts, in the future it will be
imperative.
If we make a psychological portrait of the combined
management of the future, the ideal candidate would look like. Well-educated,
intelligent, creative, but with analytical skills, communicative, understanding
of others, ready to compromise and not sharp in their judgments people. It
should be added that, if guided by the forecasts, it will be a middle-aged
woman working in a multinational company based in Asia.
