  • Redefine Work: the Untapped Opportunity for Expanding Value
    A report from the Deloitte Center for the Edge Redefine work The untapped opportunity for expanding value Deloitte Consulting LLP’s Human Capital practice focuses on optimizing and sustaining organiza- tional performance through their most important asset: their workforce. We do this by advising our clients on a core set of issues including: how to successfully navigate the transition to the future of work; how to create the “simply irresistible” experience; how to activate the digital orga- nization by instilling a digital mindset—and optimizing their human capital balance sheet, often the largest part of the overall P&L. The practice’s work centers on transforming the organization, workforce, and HR function through a comprehensive set of services, products, and world-class Bersin research enabled by our proprietary Human Capital Platform. The untapped opportunity for expanding value Contents Introduction: Opportunity awaits—down a different path | 2 A broader view of value | 4 Redefining work everywhere: What does the future of human work look like? | 6 Breaking from routine: Work that draws on human capabilities | 11 Focusing on value for others | 18 Making work context-specific | 21 Giving and exercising latitude | 25 How do we get started? | 31 Endnotes | 34 1 Redefine work Introduction: Opportunity awaits—down a different path Underneath the understandable anxiety about the future of work lies a significant missed opportunity. That opportunity is to return to the most basic question of all: What is work? If we come up with a creative answer to that, we have the potential to create significant new value for the enterprise.

What are the essential components, and what are the contextual design Embedded G ear implications of the components? How do the expectations we have 4 examined influence the design practices we want to adapt? As a point of departure, and with due restraint on the future tense, it is worth looking at technology in itself. To begin, consider how not all ubiquitous computing is portable computing. As a contrast to the universal mobility that has been the focus of so much attention, note the components of digital systems that are embedded in physical sites (figure 4.1). "Embedded" means enclosed; these chips and software are not considered computers. They are unseen parts of everyday things. "The most profound tech­ nologies are those that disappear," was Mark Weiser's often-repeated dictum. "They weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it." 1 Bashing the Desktop Some general background on the state of the computer industry is nec­ essary first, particularly regarding the all-too-familiar desktop com­ puter. By the beginning of the new century, technologists commonly asserted that a computer interface need not involve a keyboard, mouse, and screen.

  • Is There a Future for Human Factors in the 21St Century?
    Is There a Future for Human Factors in the 21st Century? A Keynote Address at the NATO RTA Specialist Meeting “Human Factors in the 21st Century” (June 2001) Nahum Gershon1 The MITRE Corporation 1820 Dolley Madison Blvd. McLean, VA 22102 [email protected] “…The development of Mosaic/Netscape is a good example of the value of Human Factors. We should use it to convince our high level management that they should invest more funds in this area…” A distinguished Speaker, 1996 I was quite surprised to hear this declaration at a Human Factors meeting a few years ago. After all, Mosaic was developed by undergraduate students who might never have heard the term “human factors”. This made me ponder why did the distinguished speaker not find better recent examples developed by the Human Factors community instead of resorting to a development not made by this community? How could such a breakthrough in human computer interaction (and human information interaction- HII) be developed without the help of the Human Factors community? Could the Human Factors community in its present form design and develop such a visionary interface? In the rest of this paper, I would like to dwell on some of the related but crucial questions and challenges facing the Human Factors community. To my mind, the issues are straightforward. Measurements and usability testing have been the cornerstone of our profession. The achievement list of Human factors is quite long (in areas including, for example, information displays and other sensory level systems, refining the computer mouse, and the desktop metaphor). However, in the process of doing our work, we have lost some of our vision.

Adams Boulevard Office Hours: By appointment Section: 20540R Credits: 4 Professor: Susan Metros Blackboard Course Site: https://blackboard.usc.edu Phone: 213-821-8084 Email: [email protected] Office Hours: By appointment Course Description This course is designed to explore the intersections of technology, culture, and imagination. As an industry, a site of cultural production, and a factor in our everyday lives, technology has had the power to change everything about the way we live, see the world, and engage in every facet of human communication. This course is designed to explore one of the pathways through which that happens-- imagination. Course Objective The primary objectives of this course are threefold: to understand where ideas come from, to learn how to implement ideas (turn ideas into actions), and to engage in assessment of those ideas. Learning Outcomes By the completion of this course, students will know how to apply creative problem solving processes for the purpose of analyzing, selecting, implementing, and evaluating ideas. They will have practiced the basic tenets of design, taking a topic that has personal interest to them and creating a project summary and work plan that will allow them to “follow their passion” from inception to execution to assessment of their original idea for utilizing or engaging communication technology. They also will be able to describe (pitch) their idea verbally, textually, and visually to a variety of diverse audiences.

Article Rethinking Technology Neutrality Brad A. Greenberg† INTRODUCTION Should laws be technology specific or technology neutral? That is, should laws be drawn narrowly to specific technologies or broadly to general characteristics? Scholars and legislators have overwhelmingly adopted the latter mode—“technology neutrality”—based on the assumption it promotes statutory longevity and equal treatment of old and new technologies. But technology neutrality suffers from inherent flaws that under- mine its ability to achieve these policy goals. Neutrality, it turns out, is both suboptimal and often self-defeating. It is also not neutral. Four fraught decades in copyright law, during which tech- nology neutrality was supposed to mitigate a perennial struggle of adapting copyright to new communications technologies, re- veal fundamental failings. With the 1976 Copyright Act,1 a Congress weary of recurring demands to revise copyright law in light of new technologies—e.g., phonographs, film, radio, cable † Visiting Fellow, Information Society Project, Yale Law School; Coun- sel, U.S. Copyright Office.
