Join the next GE2 webinar on May 11 at 9 a.m. ET, with Presenter Elizabeth J. Altman, Associate Professor of Management, UMass Lowell, speaking on "Workforce Ecosystems: Reaching Strategic Goals with People, Partners, and Technologies."
In this seminar, Prof. Elizabeth J. Altman will discuss her multi-year research project with MIT Sloan Management Review and Deloitte Consulting on the Future of the Workforce. Prof. Altman will provide an overview of her book: "Workforce Ecosystems: Reaching Strategic Goals with People, Partners, and Technologies" (MIT Press). Workforce ecosystems include traditional employees and also external participants such as long-term contractors, shorter term gig workers, complementor organizations, and even technologies (e.g., AI, software bots). This research explores managerial and organizational challenges and opportunities associated with these diverse, interconnected governance structures, including topics related to leadership approaches and technology enablers. Illustrative examples derive from interviews with senior leaders in organizations such as Amazon, IBM, Mayo Clinic, NASA, Nike, Roche, Unilever, the U.S. Army, Walmart, and others. Please join us for what is sure to be an engaging and interactive discussion of a timely and relevant topic.
