  • Eight Ways to Build Collaborative Teams by Lynda Gratton and Tamara J
    COLLABORATION Eight Ways to Build Collaborative Teams by Lynda Gratton and Tamara J. Erickson From the November 2007 Issue hen tackling a major initiative like an acquisition or an overhaul of IT systems, companies rely on large, diverse teams of highly educated W specialists to get the job done. These teams often are convened quickly to meet an urgent need and work together virtually, collaborating online and sometimes over long distances. Appointing such a team is frequently the only way to assemble the knowledge and breadth required to pull off many of the complex tasks businesses face today. When the BBC covers the World Cup or the Olympics, for instance, it gathers a large team of researchers, writers, producers, cameramen, and technicians, many of whom have not met before the project. These specialists work together under the high pressure of a “no retake” environment, with just one chance to record the action. Similarly, when the central IT team at Marriott sets out to develop sophisticated systems to enhance guest experiences, it has to collaborate closely with independent hotel owners, customer-experience experts, global brand managers, and regional heads, each with his or her own agenda and needs. Our recent research into team behavior at 15 multinational companies, however, reveals an interesting paradox: Although teams that are large, virtual, diverse, and composed of highly educated specialists are increasingly crucial with challenging projects, those same four characteristics make it hard for teams to get anything done. To put it another way, the qualities required for success are the same qualities that undermine success.

  • Rewriting the Rules of the Digital Age: Global Human Capital Trends 2017
    Rewriting the rules for the digital age 2017 Deloitte Global Human Capital Trends COVER AND CHAPTER ILLUSTRATIONS BY LUCIE RICE Deloitte’s Human Capital professionals leverage research, analytics, and industry insights to help design and execute the HR, talent, leadership, organization, and change programs that enable business performance through people performance. Visit the Human Capital area of www.deloitte.com to learn more. Rewriting the rules for the digital age PREFACE ELCOME to Deloitte’s fifth annual Global Human Capital Trends report and survey. This year’s report takes stock of the challenges ahead for business and HR leaders in a dramatically changing Wdigital, economic, demographic, and social landscape. In an age of disruption, business and HR leaders are being pressed to rewrite the rules for how they organize, recruit, develop, manage, and engage the 21st-century workforce. This workforce is changing. It’s more digital, more global, diverse, automation-savvy, and social media- proficient. At the same time, business expectations, needs, and demands are evolving faster than ever before. While some view this as a challenge, we see it as an opportunity. An opportunity to reimagine HR, talent, and organizational practices. An opportunity to create platforms, processes, and tools that will continue to evolve and sustain their value over time. An opportunity to take the lead in what will likely be among the most signifi- cant changes to the workforce that we have seen. Hence, our call for new rules for HR in the digital age. The 2017 report began last summer with us reaching out to hundreds of organizations, academics, and practi- tioners around the world.

  • Business Book Award Winner Release Final
    Strictly embargoed until 10.00pm EST, Wednesday 27th October 2010 Fault Lines – Raghuram G. Rajan wins the Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award 2010 New York, 27 October 2010: Raghuram G. Rajan today won the Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award 2010 (www.ft.com/bookaward) for Fault Lines: How Hidden Fractures Still Threaten the World Economy, published by Princeton University Press, which analyses the flaws in the economy that lead to the current financial crisis, and warns of changes essential for economic recovery. The Award was presented today at a dinner in New York by Lionel Barber, Editor, Financial Times, and Lloyd C. Blankfein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Goldman Sachs. The keynote speaker was Vartan Gregorian, President of the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Rajan saw off strong competition to win the £30,000 prize. The Award, which was established in 2005, aims to find the book that provides ‘the most compelling and enjoyable insight into modern business issues.’ Each of the five runners-up received a cheque for £10,000, an increase of £5,000 over previous years, and can expect heightened interest in their influential books. Lionel Barber said of the winning title: “Fault Lines is a comprehensive analysis of what went wrong, but it is also only the beginning of the conversation. Rajan offers insights into how to correct the flaws in financial capitalism and illuminates difficult choices in public policy. It is a serious and sober book, but in these times sobriety is a virtue.” “Raghuram Rajan has written a profound, compelling book,” said Lloyd C.

  • The Female FTSE Board Report 2015 100 WOMEN to WATCH 2015
    The Female FTSE Board Report 2015 100 WOMEN TO WATCH 2015 Dr Patricia Pryce, Cranfield International Centre for Women Leaders Jacey Graham, Director, Brook Graham Diversity & Inclusion Consultants This is the 6th edition of The 100 Women to Watch supplement which was introduced in the 2009 Female FTSE report. It has developed into a highly respected reference point for search firms, nomination committees and others with the opportunity to influence shortlists for Non-Executive Director positions in FTSE 350 companies. It is not an exhaustive or definitive list of the only talented women available for board positions; neither is it attempting to represent the best 100 women by dint of validated criteria; other lists do this in their respective fields. Our aim with the supplement is to continue to highlight the broad and deep female talent pool for ‘UK plc’ to draw on, by showcasing different talent and, in so doing, to refute the myth that there is a limited supply of willing and able women to take on board-level accountability in UK listed companies. This year’s list includes women who hold senior executive roles in FTSE 250 firms and other significant organizations such as (but not exclusively) large non-listed companies, major charities, professional services firms, educational institutions and NHS Trusts. In order to ensure that the pool includes as many new women as possible, we have not listed anyone who has been on the list twice before, or who is already an NED on a FTSE 350 Board and presumably, therefore, well known to the search community.

  • Changing Careers/Staying Relevant
    CHANGING CAREERS/STAYING RELEVANT: FACILITATING THE PATH OF MATURE STUDENTS IN HIGHER EDUCATION Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Education - Higher Education by Lyndell Patricia Fraser 2018 ABSTRACT The impacts of the ‘Knowledge Economy’, ‘Globalisation’ and technological change are widely documented as creating massive changes in the world of work. Established roles are disappearing or being “hollowed out” while new work emphasises different skill requirements: creativity, problem solving and working in fluid environments involving cross- disciplines with rapid knowledge acquisition. Under challenge too is the linear education- work-retirement or “three boxes of life” model which gave a level of stability or predictability. The literature is extensive on the challenge and potential high level policy responses, with education figuring prominently as a critical element in meeting those challenges. Some question whether the State should play more actively to protect or assist individuals in managing change – particularly the increasing and risky propensity for education journeys to be self-managed and funded, and driven to meet economic needs. Aging populaces are placing pressures on government resources with actions addressed to keeping people working including lifting retirement ages and deferring access to publicly funded support. Mature individuals are staying, and will seek to remain, in employment for financial security and social connection while being drawn to education to effect that employment. The research directed its focus to issues arising for mature learners: how do they see their learning equipping them for the future, how is learning engagement impacting sense of identity and agency, and how do they see themselves prepared to navigate an uncertain world? Is the ‘three boxes of life model’ of education-work-retirement still influential and does it affect mature learners’ expectations of education and understanding of the unfolding work environment.

    AIM NEWSLETTER September 2007 A IM Research: Call For Services Mid Career Fellowships The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) is inviting applications from eligible institutions for Mid-Career Fellowships focused on services research, through the Advanced Institute of Management Research (AIM). The mission of AIM is to increase the contribution of, and future capacity for, world class research on management. Mid-career f ellows will be expected to support this mission by personally carrying out a programme of research that meets internationally under stood academic standards, whilst actively engaging practitioners in all phases of their activities and offering workshops and development opportunities for other scholars. Thi s new round of Fellowships will complement the existing AIM Fellows by increasing research coverage of relevant issues in the area of services. While all areas of the service economy and its connectivity to manufacturing are eligible for research through an AIM Fellowship (other than public services), the ESRC would particularly welcome applications on retailing, wholesale and reta il financial services, and creative industries. Given the rise of the service sector is a global phenomena international comparative studies will also be particularly welcome. Fund ing is available to support six Fellows for a period of two years. With emphasis on research on management (rather than in manag ement), applications are invited from all relevant disciplines, including management, economics, psychology and sociology. Applica tions must be from researchers based at UK Higher Education Institutions and other Research Institutes eligible for ESRC funding. The closing date for all applications is 31st October.
