Charles Handy article on harnessing the organization revolution. Handy warns that the organizational revolution could ultimately disenfranchise many and impoverish others. In order to meet the changes and demands of the revolution, he recommends that new personnel policies, fresh thinking on pension agreements, a new concept of workers' rights, and a changing career for managers be given their proper consideration. Handy proceeds to discuss the changes to the nature of work, such as the reduction of work week hours and, more broadly, the aggregate number of hours spent working in a lifetime, and the promising drift toward a Japanese-derived organizational corporate culture based on contractual, federal organization with a professional core as a solution to modern corporate needs.
