PSFK.com & PSFK Labs

In our last report on the Future of Work, we learned how companies will thrive if they can adapt as the market around them changes. A key ingredient was flexible workforce and dynamic culture.

A few years later and we witness how more and more companies are being affected by disruption and market change. Meanwhile, a new set of employees - whether they be entry-level millennials, career-swappers or folks returning to the workforce - seem emotionally and intellectually ready for a new way of working. They understand that the world is now evolving and that the work will change with it. They no longer want to just 'come to work' but they want to be part of something: they sense (and demand) that their roles are symbiotic with the organization rather than ones of servitude.

To embrace a new army of motivated and capable believers, companies need to be willing of making those extra steps to immerse these workers into the inner-workings of the organization, to invest in iterative learning, to spend time engaging them, and then to provide platforms that allow them to elevate new ideas and lead the future of the organizations.

Companies that employ the strategies described in this new Future of Work report will be able to embrace an open, collaborative and dynamic relationship with their workers. This approach to onboarding, training and opportunity will help organizations of all types lead their markets by driving change.

I trust you will learn from the broad array of learnings in this report.

company culture from a formal training or introduction.

Professionals Are Not Formally Introduced To The Company Culture

absolutely no impact on their company’s broader mission.

And Thus Feel Insignificant Work

53% identified meeting colleagues and team members as the most important part of

their onboarding process.

But They Prioritize Feeling Welcome And Included

65% who want to pursue a powerful

idea would leave their company, rather than develop it internally.*

And Perceive Opportunity As Outside The Office

*Indicates individuals who actively selected responses to the question

6% more likely to identify

as part of team

And Gain Confidence From Colleagues Around Them

Employees who know all their colleagues in the

office are:

4% more encouraged to learn at work

6% more interested in

pursuing new ideas at the company

52% feel their managers do not accurately or effectively consistently track their
